A support stake for irrigation risers. Disclosed is a support stake which is configured for setting into the ground and which has a bracket which immobilizes the irrigation riser. The support stake resists the rotation of the irrigation riser around the irrigation pipe to which the riser is attached. The irrigation riser typically has an impact sprinkler on it which delivers a force which causes the irrigation riser to rotate in one direction and not the other. This stake prevents that rotation by trapping the riser in the bracket, and by being anchored in the ground.
