DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must
be carefully read in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.

RESTRICTIONS
Do not use on oats.
Do not spray crops under stress or to crops suffering from waterlogging, pest attack, disease or frost.
Do not spray crops undersown with grass mixtures.
Rain within one hour after application may reduce grass-weed control.
Do not allow spray to drift onto neighbouring crops of oats, ryegrass or maize.
Avoid the use of hormone-containing herbicides in mixture or sequence with AXIAL® Pro. When AXIAL Pro is
applied first, leave 7 days before applying hormone herbicides. If hormone-containing products are applied
first, leave 21 days before AXIAL Pro is applied.

GENERAL INFORMATION
AXIAL® Pro is a foliar acting grass-weed killer for the control of wild oats, Italian rye-grass and perennial rye-
grass (from seed) in winter and spring wheat and winter and spring barley. It is an ACCase inhibitor, also
classified by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee as ‘Group 1’. AXIAL Pro also controls blackgrass in
winter and spring barley as part of an integrated control strategy.

WEEDS CONTROLLED
AXIAL Pro controls wild oats, Italian rye-grass and perennial rye-grass (from seed) in winter and spring wheat
and winter and spring barley. In winter and spring barley AXIAL PRO can contribute to contol of blackgrass as
part of an integrated control programme.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
This product contains pinoxaden which is an ACCase inhibitor, also classified by the Herbicide Resistance
Action Committee as ‘Group 1’.
Use only as part of a resistance management strategy that includes cultural methods of control and does not
use ACCase inhibitors as the sole chemical method of grass-weed control.
Applying a second product containing an ACCase inhibitor to a crop will increase the risk of resistance
development; only use a second ACCase inhibitor to control different weeds at a different timing.
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. black-grass, wild-oats, and Italian rye-grass) have developed resistance to
herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be
adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from
AHDB, CPA, your distributor, crop advisor or product manufacturer.
Key aspects of the AXIAL Pro resistance management strategy are:

• Always follow WRAG guidelines for preventing and managing herbicide resistant grass weeds.
• Do not use AXIAL Pro or any other ACCase inhibitor as the sole means of grass weed control in successive crops.
• Use grassweed herbicides with different modes of action throughout the cropping rotation.
• To reduce the risk of developing resistance, applications should be made to young, actively growing weeds.
• Use tank/product mixes or sequences of herbicides with different modes of action within individual crops, or
successive crops.
• Monitor weed control effectiveness and investigate any odd patches of poor grass weed control. If
unexplained, contact your agronomist who may consider a resistance test appropriate.
• Use crop rotation and other cultural control measures to prevent and manage herbicide resistant grass weeds.
• Only apply AXIAL Pro once per crop.
• Where resistant biotypes are present control from AXIAL Pro will be unacceptable.

AXIAL Pro has no residual activity. Optimum weed control will only be achieved when all grass weeds have emerged.

The activity of AXIAL Pro is not affected by soil type, organic matter or straw residues.

AXIAL Pro does not control broad-leaved weeds and if these are present a specific broad-leaved weed
herbicide will be required.
2
AXIAL Pro is not recommended for the control of black grass in winter or spring wheat.

CROP SPECIFIC INFORMATION

Crops
AXIAL Pro can be used on all varieties of winter and spring wheat and winter and spring barley.

Timing
Spray after 1st February to before flag leaf sheath extending stage (GS 41) of the crop. Spraying should be
done when the majority of weeds have germinated, but before weed competition reduces yield.

Rates of use
Apply AXIAL Pro at 0.55 - 1.1 litres per hectare. The dose rate of AXIAL Pro depends on target grass species
and season.

WEED CONTROL
Winter and spring wheat and winter and spring barley

Wild oats – apply 0.82 litres per hectare AXIAL Pro from 1st leaf unfolded to flag leaf ligule visible.

Italian rye-grass and perennial rye-grass (from seed) – apply 0.82 litres per hectare AXIAL Pro from 1st leaf
unfolded to flag leaf ligule visible. Where applications are made to ryegrasses no larger than the 2 tiller stage
(GS22) a dose of 0.55 litres per hectare may give acceptable levels of control. Always use as part of a weed
control programme including other products active against ryegrasses.

Winter and spring barley

Black grass – apply 1.1 litres per hectare AXIAL Pro after 1st February up to the 7 tiller stage (GS27). Always
use in sequence with other products with different modes of action that are active against blackgrass and as
part of an integrated weed control programme. Where resistant biotypes are present control from AXIAL Pro
will be unacceptable.

FOLLOWING CROPS
There are no restrictions on succeeding crops in a normal rotation. In the event of a crop failure after
application of AXIAL Pro, 4 weeks should elapse after application before ryegrass, maize, oats or broad-leaved
crops are planted as replacement crops.

MIXING AND SPRAYING

Mixing Procedure
Make sure the sprayer is set to give an even application at the correct volume. Fill the spray tank with half the
required volume of water and begin agitation. Add the required amount of AXIAL Pro to the spray tank and
mix thoroughly. Add the rest of the water and continue to agitate until spraying operation is complete.

Spray Quality
Apply AXIAL Pro using a conventional fan nozzle producing a spray quality at the finer end of the medium
range as defined by the British Crop Protection Council.
A spray pressure of 2-3 bars is recommended.

Spray Volume
Spray AXIAL Pro in 100 - 400 litres of water per hectare.

TANK CLEANING PROCEDURE

Immediately after use, clean the spray equipment thoroughly. Drain the system completely and rinse spray tank,
boom and nozzles two to three times with clean water until the foam and all traces of product have been removed.

COMPANY ADVISORY INFORMATION

Please consult the Syngenta UK web site (www.syngenta.co.uk) before mixing or sequencing with Hormone or

8.2 Exposure controls

Engineering measures
Containment and/or segregation is the most reliable technical protection measure if exposure cannot be eliminated.
The extent of these protection measures depends on the actual risks in use. Maintain air concentrations below
occupational exposure standards. Where necessary, seek additional occupational hygiene advice.
Personal protective equipment
Eye protection : No special protective equipment required.
Hand protection
Material : Nitrile rubber
Break through time : > 480 min
Glove thickness : 0.5 mm
Remarks : Wear protective gloves. The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but
also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other. Please observe the instructions
regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take
into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts,
abrasion, and the contact time. The break through time depends amongst other things on the material, the
thickness and the type of glove and therefore has to be measured for each case. Gloves should be discarded
and replaced if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough.
Skin and body protection : Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concen-tration and amount of
dangerous substances, and to the specific work-place.
Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
Wear as appropriate: Impervious clothing
Respiratory protection : No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. When workers are
facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.
Protective measures : The use of technical measures should always have priority over the use of personal
protective equipment. When selecting personal protective equipment, seek appropriate professional advice.
