Always consult the label of the broadleaf herbicide prior to use.
2
Addition of surfactants other than Adigor adjuvant with Axial 100 EC are not required.

Suppression only on green foxtail.

A reduction in barnyard grass control may be observed when Axial is tank mixed with these broadleaf herbicides.
Application Information
How to Apply
:
With ground equipment or aircraft.
Water volume
: 20 - 40
L/acre- ground, a minimum of 12.1 L/acre by aircraft.
Mixing Instructions
Axial is now available with a built in adjuvant (Axial BIA) or with a stand-alone adjuvant (Axial 100EC). Consult
the specific labels for mixing instructions. Use mixing instruction “c” on page 13.
Application Tips
For optimum control, apply Axial herbicide to actively growing weeds, ideally at the 2 - 3 leaf stage. An early
application will maximize crop yields by reducing weed competition. Weeds emerging after application of Axial
herbicide will not be controlled. Weed control following application of Axial herbicide alone, or in combination
with broadleaf weed herbicides, can be reduced or delayed under stress conditions such as drought, heat, insufficient
fertility, flooding or prolonged cool temperatures. Grass escapes or re-tillering may occur if application is made
during prolonged stress conditions. Optimum weed control will be obtained if application of Axial herbicide is
delayed until the stress conditions have ended, and weeds are once again actively growing. Do not apply to crop that
is stressed by conditions such as frost, low fertility, drought, flooding, disease or insect damage as crop injury may
result.
Aerial Application
:
Apply Axial herbicide alone or in tank mixes (ONLY with the recommended tank mix partners
that are registered for aerial use) in no less than 12 litres of water per acre.
How it Works
Axial herbicide is absorbed by the leaves and is rapidly translocated to the growing points of leaves and stems.
Thorough coverage of the plants is essential for consistent control.
Expected Results
Actively growing susceptible grasses stop growing within 48 hours of treatment. Depending on species, growing
conditions and crop competition, leaves and growing points turn yellow within one to three weeks after application.
Further colour changes and loss of vigour will be observed, followed by a browning and control three to five weeks
after application.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
Axial herbicide alone can be used one hour before rainfall.
