Product Info

Axyl-Shield 2E Foliar is a systemic fungicide for use on selected crops to control certain diseases caused by members of the Oomycete class of fungi. Other fungicides must be used to control diseases incited by other classes of fungi. Resistance Management: Axyl-Shield 2E Foliar is a systemic fungicide with a specific mode of action and can be subject to development of insensitive strains of fungi. Insensitivity to this product cannot be predicted. Therefore, Sharda USA LLC does not assume any liability for crop damage resulting from insensitive strains of fungi. If treatment of listed crops is not effective following the use of Axyl-Shield 2E Foliar as instructed on this label, an insensitive strain of fungi could be the reason. If the treatment is ineffective due to the presence of an Axyl-Shield 2E Foliar insensitive strain of fungi, neither AxylShield 2E Foliar nor any other fungicide with similar action will effectively control that disease. If insensitivity occurs, other types of suitable fungicides should be used. Consult with your State Agricultural Experiment Station or Extension Service Specialist for guidance on your particular crop and disease control situation

Applications & Uses

Application Technique
Fungicide Target Species
Direction For Use

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation. Maximum usage when applying both metalaxyl and mefenoxam containing products to the same crop within the same season: Do not apply more than the maximum seasonal total for the active ingredient as stated on the label of the product containing the lowest seasonal total on that crop.

Agricultural Use Requirements

Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR Part 170. This Standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-entry interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 48 hours. Exception: If the product is soil-injected or soil-incorporated, the Worker Protection Standard, under certain circumstances, allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no contact with anything that has been treated. For Turf & Ornamental:

Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 48 hours.
Exception: If the product is soil-incorporated, or applied by drenching, the Worker Protection Standard, under certain circumstances, allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no contact with anything that has been treated. There is no restricted-entry interval (REI) requirement following soil injection, soil incorporated, or a soil drench application to ornamentals.
PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil or water is:
• Coveralls
• Chemical resistant gloves made of any waterproof material
• Shoes plus socks
• Protective eyewear such as goggles, face shield or safety glasses

Nonagricultural Use Requirements

The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the Worker Protection Standard for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests, nurseries, or greenhouses. Do not enter or allow others or pets to enter the treated area until sprays have dried. For Turf & Ornamental: Do not enter treated areas without footwear until sprays have dried.

Application Instructions

Apply Axyl-Shield 2E Foliar by ground or air in sufficient water or liquid fertilizer to provide uniform coverage of the soil surface. Apply in a minimum of 20 gals. per acre for ground applications and 5 gals. per acre by air. Refer to the specific crop directions for use for application instructions. For banded applications, the area refers to the area covered by the band, not total cropland area planted. Some row-crop instructions are based on treating in-the-row--these rates are generally specified as amount (i.e., fl. oz.) of product per certain row length (i.e., 1,000 ft.). Others express rates as amount per treated acre which means the total area treated with the pesticide. If rates are expressed as amount per treated acre and banded applications are used, the amount of pesticide used per acre will be proportionately less. Use the formula below to calculate the amount of Axyl-Shield 2E Foliar needed per acre of crop when banded applications are made

Stand the container on its end and tip it back and forth several times. Turn the container over onto its other end and tip it back and forth several times. Empty the rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank or store rinsate for later use or disposal. Repeat this procedure two more times. Pressure rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank and continue to drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Hold container upside down over application equipment or mix tank or collect rinsate for later use or disposal. Insert
pressure rinsing nozzle in the side of the container, and rinse at about 40 PSI for at least 30 seconds. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip.
