Axial 045 EC

Advanced Weed Control for Cereal Crops

Axial 045 EC represents the gold standard in cereal crop protection developed by Syngenta Crop Protection AG. This systemic, selective herbicide is engineered to combat aggressive annual grass weeds such as wild oats and various species of foxtail, which often jeopardize the yield potential of winter wheat and winter barley.

Technology and Application

The core of the product's effectiveness is pinoxaden, a powerful active ingredient that targets grass weeds by inhibiting fatty acid synthesis. To ensure crop safety, the formulation includes the safener cloquintocet-mexyl. This allows the herbicide to be applied post-emergence without risking phytotoxicity to the grain crop.

• Systemic Action: The herbicide is absorbed through the leaves, moving quickly within the weed to stop growth at the source.
• Selectivity: Specifically designed for cereals, it provides a surgical strike against weeds while keeping the crop healthy.
• Flexibility: Applied as a foliar spray at a rate of 0.5 to 1.0 liters per hectare.

Produced across specialized Syngenta facilities in Switzerland, Belgium, France, and the USA, Axial 045 EC maintains high formulation standards. With a pre-harvest interval of just one day, it offers farmers a flexible and efficient solution for intensive grain production programs, ensuring clean fields and maximum harvest quality.
