docker: production image + Gitea Actions for monthly refresh

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).

+I. General Information 
+Galaxy<' herbicide is intended for the early posterner­
+gence control of a certain broad leaf weeds in peanuts 
+and soybeans 
+Crop Tolerance 
+All peanut and soybean varieties are tolerant to Galaxy 
+at all stages of growth. Leaf speckling may occur, but 
+plants generally outgrow thiS condition within 10 days . 
+New growth is normal and crop vigor is not reduced. 
+Cleaning Spray Equipment 
+11f~ 
+Clean application equipment thoroughly by using a 
+strong detergent or commercial sprayer cleaner accord­
+ing to the manufacturer's directions and then triple 
+rinsing before and after applying this product. 
+-
+II. Application Instructions 
+Apply 2 pints of Galaxy per acre as follows unless 
+instructed differently in Table 1. Application Timing. 
+Applications can be rnade to actively growing weeds as 
+aerial or broadcast applications at the rates and growth 
+stages listed in Table 1. Application Timing. The 
+most effective control will result from rnaking postemer­
+gence applications of Galaxy early, when weeds are 
+small. Early application to weeds results in improved 
+weed control, and makes thorough spray coverage 
+easier to obtain. Delaying application permits weeds to 
+exceed the maximum size stated and will prevent ade­
+quate control. 
+Avoid drift to all other crops and nontarget areas. Do 
+not apply when conditions favor drift from target areas 
+or when windspeed is greater than 10 mph. 
+Irrigation 
+In irrigated areas, it may be necessary to irrigate before 
+treatment to ensure active weed growth. Weeds 
+growing under drought conditions usually are not ade­
+quately controlled. 
+Spray Coverage 
+Weeds must be thoroughly covered with Spl JV. Alw8yS 
+use an adequate volume of spray solution to ensure 
+thorough coverage. DenSE-- IC:dl c;..nopies shelter smaller 
+weeds and can prevent ac;oquatL spray C0vtjl J()e. 
+Cultivation

+however, it may also decrease weed control. 
+Ground Application Methods and 
+Equipment (Broadcast) 
+Water Volume: Use 10 - 20 gallons of spray solution 
+per broadcast acre for optirnal perforrnance. Increase 
+water volurne up to 50 gallons if crop or weed foliage is 
+dense 
+Spray Pressure: Use a minimum of 40 psi (measured 
+at the boom, not at the pump or in Ihe line). 
+Note: When using the lower water volume (i.e., 1 J 
+gallons per acre) or when crop and weed foliage is 
+dense, use a minimum of 60 psi for best results. 
+Application Equipment: Use stawJn' '11]h-preSsur3

+as recirculating sprayers or wiper 8pplicQtor~;
+
+III. Additives 
+To achieve consistent weed control, one of the follow­
+Ing additives are needed: ammonium sulfate, crop oil 
+concentrate, or urea amonium nitrate. AMS (or UAN) 
+should be used when velvet leaf is a primary target 
+weed. Additives may cause some leaf burn, but new 
+growth is normal and crop vigor is not reduced. The 
+potential for leaf burn is increased when relative humid­
+Ity and temperature are high. See Table 3 Additive 
+Rates Per Acre for additive rates and Table 2 
+Additive Options for Galaxy Tank Mixes. 
+Ammonium Sulfate (AMS) 
+AMS is a dry, granular nitrogen-source fertilizer. Use 
+only fine feed-grade or spray-grade AMS because 
+Infenor grades of AMS do not dissolve adequately and 
+mn plug spray noules. BASF does not recommend 
+applying AMS if applied In less than 10 gallons per acre 
+because of potential problems with preclptation In 
+reduced volumes. Use AMS only if it has been 
+demonstrated to be successful in local experience. 
+Nonionic Suriactant 
+When required in a tank mix, the standard label recom­
+mendation is 1 - 2 pints of an 80% active non ionic sur­
+factant per 100 gallons of water. 
+Oil Concentrate 
+The oil concentrate must contain either a petroleum or 
+vegetable 011 base and must meet all of the following cri­
+teria 
+• be nmlphytotoxic, 
+• contain only EPA-exempt ingredients, 
+• provide good mixing quality In the jar test, and 
+• be successful in local experience. 
+Tho exact composition of suitable products Will vary; 
+t1ow8ver, vegetable and petroleum oil concentrates 
+Additive Options for Galaxy Tank Mixes 
+should contain emulsifiers to provide good mixing 
+quality. Highly refined vegetable oils have proven more 
+satisfactory than unrefined vegetable oils. For additional 
+information, see Compatibility Test for Mix 
+Components. 
+Some oil concentrates cause excessive leaf burn. Refer 
+to your supplier for information concerning successful 
+local experience before purchasing any oil concentrate. 
+Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN) 
+Commonly referrred to as 28%, 30% or 32% nitrogen 
+solution, UAN may be added in place of other spray 
+additives to improve weed control. Because most nltro~ 
+gen solutions are mildly corrosive to galvanized, mild 
+steel, and brass spray equipment, rme the entire spray 
+system with water soon after use. Do not use brass or 
+aluminum noules when spraying UAN. 
+Oil Concentrate + Nitrogen Solution 
+A nonphytotoxic oil concentrate (as referred to above) 
+plus a nitrogen solution (UAN or AMS) can be added to 
+the spray tank with GalaxY" herbicide. This combina­
+tion is recommended for use in areas of low humidity 
+and moderate temperatures when lambsquarters, 
+ragweed, and velvetleaf are to be controlled. Excessive 
+crop injury can occur with this combination in high 
+humidity and high temperature regions. Do not exceed 
+recommended rates and adjust additive rate propor­
+tionately to spray volume applied. 
+Temperature and Relative Humidity Effects 
+The following standard (see Table 3) Will help 
+determine the optimum adjuvant rate to use. If the 
+temperature and relative humidity exceed 150 (e.g .. 
+temperature of 85c F plus 70% relative humidity = 
+155), use the lower additive rates.

+tank mixes. 
+Compatibility Test for Mix Components 
+Before mixing additives and/or other pestiCides, always 
+perform a compatibility Jar test. 
+For 20 gallons per acre spray volume, use 3.3 cups 
+(800 ml) of water. For other spray volumes, adjust rates 
+accordingly. Only use water from the intended source at 
+the source temperature. 
+Add components in the sequence Indicated In the 
+Mixing Order using 2 teaspoons for each pound or 1 
+teaspoon for each pint of recommended label rate per 
+acre. 
+Always cap the Jar and invert 10 cycles between com­
+ponent additions. 
+When the components have all been added to the jar, 
+let the solution stand for 15 minutes. Evaluate the solu­
+tion for uniformity and stability. The spray solution 
+should not have free oil on the surface, nor fine particles 
+that precipitate to the bottom, nor thick (clabbered) 
+texture. If the spray solution is not compatible, repeat 
+the compatibility test with the addition of a suitable 
+compatibility agent. If the solution is then compatible, 
+use the compatibility agent as directed on its label. If the 
+solution is still incompatible, do not mix the ingredients 
+in the same tank. 
+Mixing Order 
+When mixing additives and/or other pesticides in a 
+spray tank, add the products to be used in the following 
+sequence. 
+1) Water. Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean 
+sprayer tank three quarters full of clean water. 
+2) Agitation. Maintain constant agitation throughout 
+mixing and application 
+3) Products in PVA bags: Place any product con­
+tained in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing 
+tank. Wait until all water-soluble PYA bags have fully 
+dissolved and the product is evenly mixed in the 
+spray tank before continuing. 
+4) Water-dispersible products: (such as dry flow­
+ables, wettable powders, suspension concentrates, 
+or suspo-emulsions). If an Inductor is used, rinse It 
+thoroughly after the component has been added. 
+5) Water-solubte products ( such as Galaxy) II dr I 
+Inductor is used, nnse it thoroughly after the CGl"~u­
+nent has been added. 
+6) Emulsifiable concentrates (SUCll as oil concentrate 
+when applicable). If an inductor is J~!j( I, rinse it thur­
+oughly after the component hac been ddded. 
+7) Water-soluble additives (suen 03 N1S or UAN 
+when applicable). If an Inductor IS used, rinset t'lOI 
+oughly after the component ha~-, ~)tOUI 2dded.
