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
|
||||
Vios™ FX Herbicide:
|
||||
• is applied as a postemergence foliar spray in winter wheat and spring wheat for the control of certain annual grasses
|
||||
and broadleaf weeds.
|
||||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||||
MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT
|
||||
Aerial Applications:
|
||||
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a
|
||||
greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||||
• Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572) for all applications.
|
||||
• If the windspeed is 10 miles per hour or less, applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the
|
||||
downwind edge of the field. When the windspeed is between 11-15 miles per hour, applicators must use
|
||||
¾ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the windspeed is greater than
|
||||
10 mph, the boom length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of
|
||||
the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for
|
||||
fixed- wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters.
|
||||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||||
Ground Boom Applications:
|
||||
• User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet
|
||||
above the ground or crop canopy.
|
||||
• Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572). Do not apply when wind
|
||||
speeds exceed 15 miles per hour at the application site.
|
||||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.

SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
|
||||
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET
|
||||
SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
|
||||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||||
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target
|
||||
pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if
|
||||
applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions.
|
||||
Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
|
||||
• Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the
|
||||
highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a
|
||||
nozzle with a higher flow rate.
|
||||
• Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume
|
||||
and droplet size.
|
||||
• Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles
|
||||
designed to reduce drift.
|
||||
BOOM HEIGHT – Ground Boom
|
||||
• For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
|
||||
Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
|
||||
• Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers’ recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to
|
||||
reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
|
||||
RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft
|
||||
• Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.
|
||||
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
|
||||
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that
|
||||
the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.
|
||||
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
|
||||
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
|
||||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
|
||||
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing
|
||||
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The
|
||||
presence of an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source
|
||||
or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low
|
||||
wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates
|
||||
good vertical air mixing. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
|
||||
WIND
|
||||
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.
|
||||
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.
|
||||
Sensitive Areas
|
||||
The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., residential
|
||||
areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, nontarget crops) is minimal (e.g.,
|
||||
when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas).
|
||||
USE RESTRICTIONS
|
||||
• DO NOT apply Vios FX Herbicide to crops undersown with grass or legume species.
|
||||
• DO NOT make more than one application of Vios FX Herbicide per 365 days.
|
||||
• DO NOT apply more than 13.7 fl oz/A (0.004 pounds thiencarbazone - methyl and 0.105 pounds acid
|
||||
equivalent of fluroxypyr ((4-amino-3,5-dichloro-6- fluoro-2-pyridinyl)oxy) acetic acid) of Vios FX Herbicide
|
||||
per 365 days.
|
||||
• DO NOT apply more than 0.04 pounds/A of Thiencarbazone-methyl from all sources per 365 days.
|
||||
• DO NOT apply more than 0.25 pounds/A of fluroxypyr from all sources per 365 days
|
||||
• DO NOT apply in combination with Dicamba containing products as grass control will be reduced.
|
||||
• DO NOT apply Vios FX Herbicide in tank mixture with tebuconazole
|
||||
• DO NOT apply Vios FX Herbicide through any type of irrigation system.
|
||||
• DO NOT drain or rinse equipment near desirable vegetation.
|
||||
• DO NOT apply to winter or spring wheat after jointing.
|
||||
• DO NOT harvest or graze wheat forage within 7 days after application.
|
||||
• DO NOT harvest winter wheat or spring wheat for hay within 30 days after application.
|
||||
• DO NOT harvest wheat for grain or straw within 60 days after application in Minnesota, Montana, North
|
||||
Dakota, or South Dakota; and within 70 days in all other states.
|
||||
USE PRECAUTIONS
|
||||
• Avoid spray drift from treated areas. Refer to the Spray Drift Management section of this label for
|
||||
additional information.
|
||||
• Vios FX Herbicide is rainfast 1 hour after application to most weed species. Rainfall within 1 hour may
|
||||
result in reduced weed control.
|
||||
|
||||
4
|
||||
• Non-target plants may be adversely affected if the pesticide is allowed to drift from areas of application.
|
||||
To prevent damage to crops and other desirable plants, read and follow all directions and precautions on
|
||||
this label before using.
|
||||
• Environmental conditions which support vigorous growth of crop and weeds also result in highest
|
||||
herbicidal activity. Following application, symptoms of herbicidal activity may develop within several
|
||||
days. Speed of action depends on environmental conditions and increases with increasing temperature
|
||||
and moisture.
|
||||
• Applications of Vios FX Herbicide in winter wheat or spring wheat in combination with some EC herbicides
|
||||
may cause crop response (see tank mix section).
|
||||
• Applications during low temperatures (32ºF or lower), high temperatures (90ºF or greater), or to a crop
|
||||
under drought stress can cause crop injury.
|
||||
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
|
||||
• Weed infestations should be treated before they become competitive with the crop. Make applications to
|
||||
actively growing weeds. Thorough coverage of weeds is necessary to obtain good weed control. Weed
|
||||
control may be reduced when weeds are under stress due to severe weather conditions, drought, very
|
||||
cold temperatures, etc. Temperature range for optimal herbicidal activity is 55ºF to 75ºF .
|
||||
• Properly calibrate ground or aerial (fixed wing or helicopter) application equipment to apply Vios FX
|
||||
Herbicide postemergence as a foliar spray. Use of nozzles and spray pressure that deliver medium to
|
||||
coarse spray droplets as indicated in the nozzle manufacturer’s catalogs and in accordance with ASABE
|
||||
Standard S-572 for optimum spray coverage and canopy penetration.
|
||||
• Avoid uneven spray distribution, skips, overlaps, and spray drift.
|
||||
Aerial Application
|
||||
Calibrate the spray equipment prior to use. Vios FX Herbicide should be applied in a minimum of 5 gallons of
|
||||
water per broadcast acre.
|
||||
Ground Application
|
||||
Apply Vios FX Herbicide broadcast in 10 or more gallons of water per acre.
|
||||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||||
For resistance management, Vios FX Herbicide is a Group 2 (thiencarbazone-methyl) and Group 4
|
||||
(fluroxypyr-methylheptyl) herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant
|
||||
to Vios FX Herbicide and other Group 2 and Group 4 herbicides. The resistant biotypes may dominate
|
||||
the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field. Appropriate resistance
|
||||
management strategies should be followed.
|
||||
To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps:
|
||||
• Rotate the use of Vios FX Herbicide or other Group 2 and Group 4 herbicides within a growing season
|
||||
sequence or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.
|
||||
• Use tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group if such use is permitted; where information
|
||||
on resistance in target weed species is available, use the less resistance-prone partner at a rate that
|
||||
will control the target weed(s) equally as well as the more resistance-prone partner. Consult your local
|
||||
extension service or certified crop advisor if you are unsure as to which active ingredient is currently less
|
||||
prone to resistance.
|
||||
• Adopt an integrated weed-management program for herbicide use that includes scouting and uses
|
||||
historical information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that considers tillage ( or other
|
||||
mechanical control methods), cultural ( e.g., higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application
|
||||
method and timing to favor the crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-competitive crops or varieties)
|
||||
and other management practices.
|
||||
• Fields should be scouted prior to application to identify the weed species present and their growth stage
|
||||
to determine if the intended application will be effective.
|
||||
• Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance development.
|
||||
Indicators of possible herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed species normally controlled
|
||||
by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; (2) a spreading
|
||||
patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; (3) surviving plants mixed with controlled
|
||||
individuals of the same species. If resistance is suspected, prevent weed seed production in the affected
|
||||
area by an alternative herbicide from a different group or by a mechanical method such as hoeing or tillage.
|
||||
Prevent movement of resistant weed seeds to other fields by cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment
|
||||
when moving between fields, and planting clean seed.
|
||||
• If a weed pest population continues to progress after treatment with this product, discontinue use of this product,
|
||||
and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if available.
|
||||
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance-management
|
||||
and/or integrated weed-management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes.
|
||||
• For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER
|
||||
(1-866-992-2937). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to
|
||||
report resistance.

COMPATIBILITY TESTING AND TANK MIX PARTNERS
|
||||
Compatibility
|
||||
If Vios FX Herbicide is to be tank mixed with liquid fertilizers or other pesticides, compatibility should be
|
||||
tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1 qt)
|
||||
of spray, combining all ingredients in the same ratio as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical
|
||||
incompatibility develop, do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually will appear
|
||||
within 5-15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow all parts of the label of each tank-mix product.
|
||||
Tank Mix Instructions
|
||||
For control of weeds not listed on this label, Vios FX Herbicide may be mixed with other herbicides with the
|
||||
exception of dicamba containing products. It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products
|
||||
in the listed mixtures are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the most restrictive directions for
|
||||
use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.

Order of Mixing
|
||||
Vios FX Herbicide must be applied with clean and properly calibrated equipment. Prior to adding Vios FX
|
||||
Herbicide to the spray tank, ensure that the spray tank, filters and nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned.
|
||||
In-line strainers and nozzle screens should be 50 mesh or coarser.
|
||||
1. Fill the spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full with clean water and begin agitation or bypass.
|
||||
2. Add a listed tank mix partner, if desired. Please check Tank Mix section for optimum mixing suggestions
|
||||
3. Add the specified rate of Vios FX Herbicide directly to the spray tank. Maintain sufficient agitation during
|
||||
both mixing and application. DO NOT pre-slurry by adding any quantity of Vios FX Herbicide to a small
|
||||
amount of water.
|
||||
4. Fill the spray tank with balance of water needed.
|
||||
5. Continue agitation during Vios FX Herbicide application to ensure uniform spray coverage.
|
||||
NOTE: Vios FX Herbicide may settle if left standing without agitation. If the spray solution is allowed to stand
|
||||
for one hour or more, re-agitate the spray solution for a minimum of 10 minutes before application.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Equipment Cleanup Procedures
|
||||
1. Drain the tank completely, and then wash out tank, boom and hoses with clean water. Drain again.
|
||||
2. Half fill the tank with clean water and add ammonia (i.e., 3% domestic ammonia solution) at a dilution rate
|
||||
of 1% (i.e., 1 gallon of domestic ammonia for every 100 gallons of rinsate). Complete filling of the tank with
|
||||
water. Agitate/recirculate and flush through boom and hoses. Leave agitation on for 10 minutes. Drain tank
|
||||
completely.
|
||||
3. Repeat step 2.
|
||||
4. Remove nozzles and screens and soak them in a 1% ammonia solution. Inspect nozzles and screens and
|
||||
remove visible residues.
|
||||
5. Flush tank, boom, and hoses with clean water.
|
||||
6. Inspect tank for visible residues. If present, repeat step 2.

Cover Crops
|
||||
Use of cover crops as a means of soil improvement, erosion control, weed and/or insect suppression, etc.,
|
||||
following harvest in the fall is increasing. Planting of cover crops in fields treated with Vios FX Herbicide is
|
||||
allowed as long as these cover crops are not grazed by livestock nor harvested for food. Cover crops are to
|
||||
be tilled under or chemically controlled with burndown herbicides in the spring. Many cover crops can be
|
||||
planted within 90-120 days after application of Vios FX Herbicide. However, all potential cover crops have not
|
||||
been evaluated for tolerance to Vios FX Herbicide and significant injury may occur. Prior to seeding a cover
|
||||
crop, complete a successful field/ small scale bioassay to provide an indication of the level of tolerance to the
|
||||
prior Vios FX Herbicide application. Refer to the “Field/Small Scale Bioassay” section.
|
||||
Field/Small Scale Bioassay
|
||||
A field/ small scale bioassay must be completed before rotating to a cover crop other than those specified in
|
||||
the “Rotational Crop Restrictions” section of this label. To conduct an effective field bioassay, grow strips of
|
||||
the crop(s) you intend to grow the following season in a field previously treated with Vios FX Herbicide. The
|
||||
test strip should be placed in a controlled area and should include low areas and knolls, and include variations
|
||||
in soil such as type and pH. Crop response to the bioassay will determine if the crop(s) grown in the test strips
|
||||
can be grown safely in the areas previously treated with Vios FX Herbicide.
|
||||
For an effective small scale bioassay, collect uniform samples of all soil types from the Vios FX Herbicide-treated
|
||||
field and place the soil into a sturdy container. Plant the desired cover crop into the soil, apply water and place
|
||||
the container in a warm, sunny area to allow germination and growth of the crop. Monitor growth of the cover
|
||||
crop over a three to four week period. If the cover crop emerges and grows normally, the risk to establish and
|
||||
grow the cover crop in the Vios FX Herbicide-treated field should be tolerable.
|
||||
WEEDS CONTROLLED & PARTIALLY CONTROLLED
|
||||
Vios FX Herbicide effectively controls the following weeds when applied at the application timings
|
||||
recommended and when weeds are actively growing. Best control is achieved when grass weeds are
|
||||
treated between the 1-leaf to 1-tiller stage of growth and broadleaf weeds are between the 1-6 leaf stage of
|
||||
growth, unless otherwise indicated. Vios FX Herbicide will have an effect on weeds that are larger than the
|
||||
recommended leaf stage; however the speed of activity and level of control may be reduced.
