Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
Dockerfile: self-contained image with corpus + Chroma + BM25 baked in. Drawbar's compose pulls + runs without volume mounts. Built from sources.json (labels schema), PRODUCT_NAME=crop_chem by default, HYBRID_SEARCH=true (always-on for production quality). RERANK_URL + OLLAMA_URL get set at compose time. .gitea/workflows/refresh.yml: monthly cron (1st @ 06:00 UTC) does full scrape → reindex → image push. Scrapes Bayer (~30 min) + EPA PPLS row-crop filtered (~7h). Skips reindex+push if no corpus diff. Tags pushed: :latest, :<sha12>, :corpus-<YYYY.MM.DD>. .gitea/workflows/image-only.yml: on-demand or auto on code-only pushes to main (paths: docs_mcp/, rag/, scrape/, requirements.txt, Dockerfile, sources.json). Reindexes from committed corpus, builds image, pushes. ~10 min vs ~9h full refresh. .gitignore: corpus/ now COMMITTED (4,159 labels, 265 MB of .md + sidecars). Lets image-only.yml rebuild indexes without re-scraping. chroma/ + bm25/ still gitignored (regenerable binary indexes). .dockerignore: drops venv, eval results, PLAN/README/CLAUDE.md, deploy/, .git/ — keeps the image lean. corpus + chroma + bm25 explicitly NOT in dockerignore (those go INTO the image).

PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||||
MINUETTM :
|
||||
• contains bacteria that, when applied to the soil, will germinate to colonize the developing root system and provide
|
||||
suppression of disease-causing organisms such as Fusarium, Pythium and Rhizoctonia that can attack plant roots. For
|
||||
disease prevention, use MINUET in a tank-mix or rotational program with other registered fungicides and bactericides.
|
||||
• provides benefits which can result in healthier plants. As the plant’s root system develops, the bacteria in MINUET,
|
||||
formulated and provided at optimized levels, grows with the roots, and aids in the establishment of a vigorous root
|
||||
system. Improved plant health may help the host plant tolerate environmental stresses and increase nutrient utilization,
|
||||
plant stand and yield.
|
||||

Chemigation Monitoring
|
||||
A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible
|
||||
person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
|
||||
Required System Safety Devices
|
||||
The system must contain a functional check valve, a vacuum relief valve, and a low-pressure drain appropriately located on
|
||||
the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain
|
||||
a functional automatic quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. The pesticide
|
||||
injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the
|
||||
injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the
|
||||
irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down. The system must contain functional interlocking controls
|
||||
to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops. The irrigation line or water pump
|
||||
must include a functional pressure switch, which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the
|
||||
point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. Systems must use a metering pump such as a positive displacement
|
||||
injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump), effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides
|
||||
and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
|
||||
Using Water From Public Water Systems
|
||||
Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless
|
||||
the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
|
||||
Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if such system has at least
|
||||
15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year. Chemigation
|
||||
systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone (RPZ), back-flow preventer or the
|
||||
functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water
|
||||
from the public water system should be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete
|
||||
physical break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the
|
||||
inside diameter of the fill pipe. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic quick-closing check valve to
|
||||
prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional normally closed
|
||||
solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from
|
||||
being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down. The system must
|
||||
contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops or
|
||||
in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely
|
||||
affected. Systems must use a metering pump such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump) effectively
|
||||
designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.

Injection for Chemigation
|
||||
Inject the specified dosage of MINUET into the irrigation main water stream: (1) through a constant flow, metering device; (2) into
|
||||
the center of the main line flow via a pivot tube or equivalent; (3) at a point ahead of at least one, right-angle turn in the main
|
||||
stream flow such that thorough mixing with the irrigation water is ensured.
|
||||
Center Pivot, Lateral Move, End Tow, and Traveler Irrigation Equipment (Use only with electric or oil hydraulic drive systems
|
||||
that provide a uniform water distribution)
|
||||
• Determine size of area to be treated.
|
||||
• Determine the time required to apply no more than 1/4 inch of water (6,750 gallons water per acre) over the area to
|
||||
be treated when the system and injection equipment are operated at normal pressures specified by the equipment
|
||||
manufacturer. Run system at 80 to 95% of manufacturer’s rated capacity.
|
||||
• Using only water, determine the injection pump output when operated at normal line pressure.
|
||||
• Determine the amount of MINUET fungicide required to treat area.
|
||||
• Add required amount of MINUET fungicide and sufficient water to meet the injection time requirements of the solution tank.
|
||||
• Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the injection period.
|
||||
• Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed. Continue to operate the system until MINUET fungicide solution
|
||||
has cleared the sprinkler head.
|
||||
Solid Set, Side (Wheel) Roll, and Hand Move Irrigation Equipment
|
||||
• Determine acreage covered by sprinkler.
|
||||
• Fill injector solution tank with water and adjust flow rate to use contents over a 10- to 30-minute interval.
|
||||
• Determine the amount of MINUET fungicide required to treat area.
|
||||
• Add the required amount of MINUET fungicide into the same quantity of water used to calibrate the injection equipment.
|
||||
• Maintain constant solution tank agitation during the injection period.
|
||||
• Operate system at normal pressures specified by the manufacturer of the injection equipment and used for the time
|
||||
interval established during calibration.
|
||||
• Inject MINUET fungicide at the end of the irrigation cycle or as a separate application to maximize foliar fungicide retention.
|
||||
• Stop injection equipment after treatment is completed. Continue to operate the system until MINUET fungicide solution
|
||||
has cleared the last sprinkler head.
|
||||
Flushing and Cleaning the Chemical Injection System
|
||||
At the end of the application period, allow time for all lines to flush the pesticide through all nozzles or emitters before turning
|
||||
off irrigation water. To ensure the lines are flushed and free of pesticides, a dye indicator may be injected into the lines to mark
|
||||
the end of the application period.
|
||||
In order to apply pesticides accurately, the chemical injection system must be kept clean, free of chemical or fertilizer residues
|
||||
and sediments. Refer to your owner’s manual or ask your equipment supplier for the cleaning procedure for your injection system.

|
||||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||||
The interaction of many equipment and weather related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for
|
||||
considering all of these factors when making application decisions. Consult the local Cooperative Extension for additional information.
|
||||
Avoiding spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator.
|
||||
Droplet Size
|
||||
Use the largest droplet size which provides sufficient control and coverage. Higher flow nozzles and lower pressures will
|
||||
produce larger droplets and minimize drift. Low drift and air induction nozzles will provide lower drift potential. Use larger
|
||||
droplet size when applying in hot, dry conditions (droplet evaporation is higher under these conditions, thus reducing the
|
||||
effective droplet size and increasing drift potential).
|
||||
Wind Speed
|
||||
Drift potential increases at wind speeds of less than 3 mph (due to inversion potential) or more than 10 mph. Applications
|
||||
during gusty or calm wind conditions should be avoided. However, many factors, including droplet size, canopy and equipment
|
||||
specifications determine drift potential at any given wind speed. For applications made in-furrow or below soil-level, wind
|
||||
speed restrictions are not applicable.
|
||||
Temperature Inversions
|
||||
Drift potential is high during temperature inversions and applications should be avoided under these conditions. Temperature
|
||||
inversions are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and
|
||||
often continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog. If fog is not present, inversions can also
|
||||
be identified by the movement of smoke or dust from a ground source -- smoke or dust that layers and moves laterally in a
|
||||
concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion.
|
||||
Sensitive Areas
|
||||
When applying adjacent to residential areas, bodies of water, habitats known to have threatened or endangered species, or non-target
|
||||
crops, drift can be minimized to these areas by making application when the wind direction is away from these areas.
|
||||
Where states or local authorities have more stringent regulations, they should be observed.
|
||||
COMPATIBILITY TESTING AND TANK MIX PARTNERS
|
||||
Compatibility
|
||||
MINUET is physically and biologically compatible with many commonly used pesticides, fertilizers, adjuvants, and surfactants
|
||||
but has not been fully evaluated with all of these. To ensure compatibility of tank-mix combinations, evaluate them prior to
|
||||
use as follows: Using a suitable container, add proportional amounts of product to water. Add wettable powders first, followed
|
||||
by water dispersible granules, then by liquid flowables, and lastly, emulsifiable concentrates. Mix thoroughly and let stand for
|
||||
at least five minutes. If the combination stays mixed or can be remixed, it is physically compatible. Test the combination on a
|
||||
small portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response does not occur as a result of application.
|
||||
Do not combine MINUET with pesticides, surfactants, or fertilizers with which there has been no previous experience or use
|
||||
demonstrating that they are physically compatible, effective, and non-injurious under your use conditions.

Order of Mixing
|
||||
MINUET may be tank-mixed with other registered pesticides to enhance plant disease control or suppression. This product
|
||||
cannot be mixed with any product with a prohibition against such mixing. When tank-mixing MINUET with other registered
|
||||
pesticides, always read and follow all use directions, restrictions, and precautions of both MINUET and the tank-mix partner(s).
|
||||
Use of the resulting tank mix must be in accordance with the more restrictive label limitations and precautions. Do not exceed
|
||||
label dosage rates.
|
||||
1. Partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin agitation.
|
||||
2. Add the specified amount of MINUET
|
||||
3. Finish filling the tank to the volume necessary to obtain the proper spray concentration.
|
||||
It is critical that the spray solution be agitated during mixing and application to assure a uniform suspension. Do not allow
|
||||
spray mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods. Maintain a spray solution pH between 4.5 and 8.5.
|
||||
SPECIFIC CROP DIRECTIONS
|
||||
CROP USE DIRECTIONS
|
||||
• MINUET has a 0-Day Pre-Harvest Interval for all crops contained on this label.
|
||||
• Applying MINUET to the soil at plant establishment will enhance root colonization.
|
||||
• For improved performance under moderate to severe disease pressure, use the stated higher rates and reduced spray
|
||||
intervals as stated or use MINUET in a tank-mix or rotational program with other registered fungicides.
|
||||
Soil Treatment Application Instructions
|
||||
MINUET is a broad spectrum fungicide and bactericide for the prevention, suppression [and control] of soil borne diseases on
|
||||
a wide range of horticultural and broadacre crops. For all crops, MINUET may be applied as a soil surface drench, shanked-in,
|
||||
side-dress, injected and in-furrow at any time.
|
||||
Greenhouse Application Instructions
|
||||
MINUET may be applied as a soil treatment in Greenhouses with good resistance management programs. See soil treatment
|
||||
application instructions. Crop safety has not been confirmed on all cultivars. Plant compatibility testing is recommended when
|
||||
first using under your greenhouse conditions.
|
||||
Preventative Applications for Plant Health and Optimum Disease Control
|
||||
MINUET provides benefits which can result in healthier plants. MINUET colonizes plants, preventing the establishment of
|
||||
disease-causing fungi and bacteria. As the plant’s root system develops, the bacteria in MINUET, formulated and provided at
|
||||
optimized levels, grow with the roots, providing protection throughout the growing season and resulting in the establishment
|
||||
of a vigorous root system. Improved plant health may help the host plant tolerate environmental stresses such as drought,
|
||||
heat, and cold temperatures. MINUET improves plant utilization of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, other micronutrients and
|
||||
iron. Overall increased plant health may improve crop vigor, yields and quality, especially under stressful conditions.
