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).

|
||
Apply STEADFAST® to field corn hybrids with a relative
|
||
maturity (RM) rating of 77 days or more, including "food
|
||
grade" (yellow dent, hard endosperm), waxy and oil corn.
|
||
Not all field corn hybrids of less than 77 days RM, not all
|
||
white corn hybrids nor Hi-Lysine hybrids have been tested for
|
||
crop safety, nor does DuPont have access to all seed company
|
||
data. Consequently, injury arising from the use of
|
||
STEADFAST® on these types of corn is the responsibility of
|
||
the user. Consult with your seed supplier before applying
|
||
STEADFAST® to any of these corn types. Applications of
|
||
STEADFAST® to corn hybrids of 77-88 CRM should be
|
||
limited to corn that is 12" tall, less than or equal to 5-1eaf
|
||
collars, whichever is most restrictive. In addition, the
|
||
application of tank mixtures with dicamba-containing
|
||
herbicides (such as "Clarity" or "Distinct") to 77-88 CRM
|
||
corn should contain no more than 2 ounces a.i. dicamba (e.g.
|
||
4 ounces "Clarity"). Seed company publications indicate
|
||
"Warning", "Crop Response Warning", or "Sensitive"
|
||
notations for the use of some ALS herbicides on corn hybrids
|
||
of 77 CRM or higher. As noted in the seed company
|
||
publications, DuPont sulfonylurea herbicides such as
|
||
STEADFAST® should be used with caution on these hybrids.
|
||
Consult with your local DuPont representative or the DuPont
|
||
Label Web Site (http://cropprotection.dupont.coml) for any
|
||
additional supplemental labeling information relative to
|
||
potential corn hybrid sensitivity to STEADFAST®.
|
||
Limit STEADFAST® applications to corn that is up to 12"
|
||
tall, up to and including 5 leaf collars, whichever is IU~~.

As weeds mature, their sensitivity to STEADFAST®
|
||
decreases. Grassy weeds growing under stress due to
|
||
drought or other environmental factors may become mature
|
||
(more than 3 tillers) before they reach the size listed, in
|
||
which case their susceptibility to STEADFAST® may be
|
||
reduced.
|
||
SPRAY ADJUVANTS
|
||
Applications of STEADFAST® must include either a crop
|
||
oil concentrate or a nonionic surfactant. In addition, an
|
||
ammonium nitrogen fertilizer must be used unless specif
|
||
ically prohibited by tank mix partner labeling. Crop oil
|
||
concentrate plus ammonium nitrogen fertilizer is the
|
||
preferred adjuvant system for STEADFAST®. Consult local
|
||
DuPont fact sheets, technical bulletins, and service policies
|
||
prior to using other adjuvant systems. If another herbicide is
|
||
tank mixed with STEADFAST®, select adjuvants
|
||
authorized for use with Doth products. Products must
|
||
contain only EPA-exempt ingredients (40 CFR 1001).
|
||
Petroleum Crop Oil Concentrate (COC) or
|
||
Modified Seed Oil (MSO)
|
||
• Apply at 1 % v/v (1 gallon per 100 gallons spray solution) or
|
||
2% under arid conditions.
|
||
• MSO adjuvants may be used at 0.5% v/v (0.5 gallon per 100
|
||
gallons spray solution) if specifically noted on adjuvant
|
||
product labeling.
|
||
• Oil adjuvants must contain at least 80% high quality,
|
||
petroleum (mineral) or modified vegetable seed oil with at
|
||
least 15% surfactant emulsifiers.
|
||
Nonionic Surfactant (NIS)
|
||
• Apply at 0.25% v/v (1 quart per 100 gallons spray
|
||
solution) or 0.5% under arid conditions.
|
||
• Surfactant products must contain at least 60% nonionic
|
||
surfactant with a hydrophilicllipophilic balance (HLB)
|
||
greater than 12.
|
||
Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer
|
||
• Use 2 quarts/acre of a high-quality urea ammonium nitrate
|
||
(UAN), such as 28%N or 32%N, or 2 pounds/acre of a
|
||
spray-grade ammonium sulfate (AMS). Use 4 quarts/acre
|
||
UAN or 4 pounds/acre AMS under arid conditions.
|
||
• Do not use liquid nitrogen fertilizer as the total carrier
|
||
solution.
|
||
Special Adjuvant Types
|

material.
|
||
5. As the tank is filling, add the required spray adjuvants
|
||
(crop oil concentrate, nonionic surfactant, or ammonium
|
||
nitrogen fertilizer).
|
||
6. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settling will
|
||
occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly re-agitate before
|
||
using.
|
||
7. Apply STEADFAST® spray mixture within 24 hours of
|
||
mixing to avoid product degradation.
|
||
8. If STEADFAST® and a tank mix partner are to be
|
||
applied in multiple loads, pre-slurry the STEADFAST®
|
||
in clean water prior'to adding to the tank. This will
|
||
prevent the tank mix partner from interfering with the
|
||
dissolution of the STEADFAST®.
|
||
WHEN TO APPLY - SEQUENTIAL APPLICATIONS
|
||
FOLLOWING REDUCED RATES OF
|

|
||
TANK MIX COMPATIBILITY TESTING
|
||
Perform a jar test prior to tank mixing to ensure compatibility of
|
||
DuPont™ STEADFAST® and other pesticides. Use a clear
|
||
glass quart jar with lid and mix the tank mix ingredients in their
|
||
relative proportions. Invert the jar containing the mixture several
|
||
times and observe the mixture for approximately 112 hour. If
|
||
the mixture balls-up, forms flakes, sludges, gels, oily film or
|
||
layers, or other precipitates, it is not compatible and the tank
|
||
mix combination should not be used.
|
||
SEQUENTIAL DUPONTTM ACCENT®
|
||
APPLICATIONS
|
||
Apply ACCENT® herbicide 14 or more days after
|
||
STEADFAST® applications to control grasses that may
|
||
emerge later in the season. Refer to the ACCENT® label for
|
||
grass species controlled, proper size of weeds, rates, com
|
||
sizes, and other information. When following a
|
||
STEADFAST® application, do not use more than 2/3 ounce
|
||
ACCENT® per acre.
|
||
:,il"'I~.~~
|
||
CULTIVATION
|
||
A timely cultivation may be necessary to control suppressed
|
||
weeds, or weeds that emerge after an application of
|
||
STEADFAST® in the absence of an activating rainfall.
|
||
Optimum timing for cultivation is 7-14 days after
|
||
STEADFAST® 'application or upon seeing the establishment
|
||
of new weeds.
|
||
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
|
||
AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
|
||
STEADFAST® provides best results when applied to young,
|
||
actively growing weeds. Applications made during warm,
|
||
moist conditions (70°F or more) and adequate soil moisture
|
||
both before and after application maximizes performance.
|
||
The degree and duration of control depend on spray coverage,
|
||
activating rainfall, weed spectrum, weed size, growing
|
||
conditions before and after treatment, soil moisture, and
|
||
adjuvant selection.
|
||
Adequate soil moisture is required for optimum activity.
|
||
Rainfall within 5-7 days will enhance STEADFAST® residual
|
||
activity. A timely cultivation may be required for maximum
|
||
weed control without an activating rain.
|
||
STEADFAST® is rainfast in 4 hours.
|
||
Treating weeds that exceed maximum label height or that are
|
||
under stress may result in incomplete control. Poor weed control
|
||
or crop injury may result from applications made to plants under
|
||
stress from:
|
||
\oo\'\~
|
||
• abnormally hot or cold weather
|
||
• environmental conditions such as drought, water-saturated
|
||
soils, hail damage, or frost
|
||
• disease, insect, or nematode injury
|
||
• prior herbicide, or carryover from a previous year's herbicide
|
||
application
|
||
Severe stress from conditions immediately following application
|
||
may also result in crop injury or poor weed control. Stress
|
||
affects all weeds, but especially weeds such as woolly cupgrass,
|
||
.green and yellow foxtail, and wild proso millet.
|
||
7
|
||
If the com or grass weeds are under stress, delay application
|
||
until stress passes and both weeds and com resume active
|
||
growth.
|
||
Apply STEADFAST® when minimum nighttime temperatures
|
||
are above 40°F and the maximum daytime temperatures are
|
||
below 92°F to maximize performance and minimize the
|
||
potential for crop injury.
|
||
Applications made during or immediately following periods of
|
||
large day/night temperature fluctuations or where daytime
|
||
temperatures do not exceed 50°F may decrease weed control
|
||
and increase the potential for crop injury.
|
||
STEADFAST® rapidly inhibits the growth of susceptible
|
||
weeds, reducing weed competition within as little as 6 hours
|
||
after application. Susceptible plants are controlled in 7-21 days.
|
||
Ground application of STEADFAST® to dry, dusty fields may
|
||
reduce weed control in wheel track areas.

CROP ROTATION
|
||
Rotational crops vary in their response to low concentrations of
|
||
STEADFAST® remaining in the soil. STEADFAST®
|
||
dissipates rapidly in warm, acidic, microbiologically active soils.
|
||
The amount of STEADFAST® which may be present in the soil
|
||
depends on soil pH and organic matter content, elapsed time
|
||
since application, crop production practices, and environmental
|
||
factors.
|
||
|
||
Injury to rotational crops may occur in high-pH, cold soils if dry
|
||
weather prevails between application and rotational crop
|
||
planting.
|
||
For fields treated with sequential applications of DuPont™
|
||
STEADFAST® and DuPont™ ACCENT® herbicide, consult
|
||
the crop rotation intervals listed on the ACCENT® and
|
||
STEADFAST® labels. Use the most restrictive recrop interval
|
||
from either label.
|
||
The following rotational intervals must be observed when using

APPLICATION INFORMATION
|
||
Many crops are highly sensitive to STEADFAST®. All
|
||
direct or indirect contact (such as spray drift) with crops
|
||
other than field com should be avoided (see also SPRAY
|
||
DRIFT MANAGEMENT).
|
||
For all application systems, use 50-mesh or larger strainer
|
||
screens.
|
||
8
|
||
Do not apply. STEADFAST® through any type of irrigation
|
||
system.
|
||
GROUND APPLICATION
|
||
Broadcast Application
|
||
Use a minimum of 15 gallons of water per acre (GPA) to
|
||
ensure thorough coverage of the weeds and the best
|
||
performance. Use a minimum of 10 GPA for light, scattered
|
||
stands of weeds
|
||
For best performance, select nozzles and pressure that
|
||
deliver MEDIUM spray droplets, as indicated, for example,
|
||
by ASAE Standard S572. Nozzles that deliver COARSE
|
||
spray droplets may be used to reduce drift, provided spray
|
||
volume is increased to maintain coverage on small weeds.
|
||
For optimal product performance and minimal spray drift,
|
||
adjust the spray boom to the lowest possible spray height
|
||
recommended in manufacturers' specifications.
|
||
Ensure that equipment is set up to avoid applying an
|
||
excessive rate directly over the rows and into the com plant
|
||
whorl. Overlaps or starting, stopping, slowing, and turning
|
||
while spraying may result in crop injury.
|
||
Band Application
|
||
For band applications, use proportionately less spray
|
||
mixture. To avoid crop injury, carefully calibrate the band
|
||
applicator to not exceed the labeled rate. Carefully follow
|
||
the manufacturer's instructions for nozzle type (flat fans),
|
||
orientation, distance of nozzles from the crop and weeds,
|
||
spray volumes, calibration and spray pressure.
|
||
AERIAL APPLICATION
|
||
Aerial application is not permitted in New York State or
|
||
California.
|
||
Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide
|
||
optimum spray distribution and maximum coverage at a
|
||
minimum of 5 GPA.

Cleanup Procedure
|
||
I. Drain the tank and thoroughly hose down the interior
|
||
surfaces. Flush the tank, hoses, and boom with clean
|
||
water for a minimum of 5 min.
|
||
2. Partially fill the tank with clean water and add one gallon
|
||
of household ammonia* (contluning 3% active) for every
|
||
100 gallons of water. Finish filling the tank with water,
|
||
then flush the cleaning solution through the hoses, boom,
|
||
and nozzles. Add more water to completely fill the tank
|
||
and allow to agitate/recirculate for at least IS min. Again,
|
||
flush the hoses, boom, and nozzles with the cleaning
|
||
solution, then drain the tank.
|
||
3. Repeat Step 2.
|
||
4. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately in a
|
||
bucket containing the cleaning agent and water.
|
||
5. Thoroughly rinse the tank with clean water for a
|
||
minimum of 5 min, flushing the water through the hoses
|
||
and boom.
|
||
* Equivalent amounts of an alternate strength ammonia solution or a
|
||
tank cleaner recommended in the DuPont bulletin "Sulfonylurea
|
||
Herbicides, A Guide to Equipment Cleanout," may be used.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
The interaction of many equipment and weather-related
|
||
factors determines the potential for spray drift. The
|
||
applicator is responsible for considering all these factors
|
||
when making application decisions.
|
||
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY
|
||
OF THE APPLICATOR.
|
||
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
|
||
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply
|
||
large droplets (>150 - 200 microns). The best drift
|
||
management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that
|
||
provide sufficient coverage and control. The presence of
|
||
sensitive species nearby, the environmental conditions, and
|
||
pest pressure may affect how an applicator balances drift
|
||
control and coverage. APPLYING LARGER DROPLETS
|
||
REDUCES DRIFT POTENTIAL, BUT WILL NOT
|
||
PREVENT DRIFT IF APPLICATIONS ARE MADE
|
||
IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE ENVIRON
|
||
MENTAL CONDITIONS! See Wind, Temperature and
|
||
Humidity, and Temperature Inversions sections of this
|
||
label.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size - General Techniques
|
||
• Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest
|
||
practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows
|
||
produce larger droplets.
|
||
• Pressure - Use the lower spray pressures recommended
|
||
for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet size and
|
||
does not improve canopy penetration. WHEN HIGHER
|
||
FLOW RATES ARE NEEDED, USE A HIGHER
|
||
CAPACITY NOZZLE INSTEAD OF INCREASING
|
||
PRESSURE.
|
||
• Nozzle Type- Use a nozzle type that is designed for the
|
||
intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower
|
||
spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low
|
||
drift nozzles.
|
||
Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft
|
||
• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimumnumber of
|
||
nozzles with the highest flow rate that provide uniform
|
||
coverage.
|
||
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray
|
||
is emitted.backwards, parallel to the airstream will
|
||
produce larger droplets than other orientations.
|
||
• Nozzle Type - Solid stream nozzles (such as disc and core
|
||
with swirl plate removed) oriented straight back produce
|
||
larger droplets than other nozz!e types.
|
||
• Boom Length - The boom length should not exceed 3/4
|
||
of the wing or rotor length - longer booms increase drift
|
||
potential.
|
||
• Application Height - Application more than lOft above
|
||
the canopy increases the potential for spray drift.
|
||
BOOM HEIGHT
|
||
Setting the boom at.the lowest labeled height (if specified)
|
||
which provides uniform coverage reduces the exposure of
|
||
-' droplets to evaporation and wind. For ground equipment,
|
||
the boom should remain level with the crop and have
|
||
minimal bounce.
|
||
9
|
||
WIND
|
||
Drift potential increases at wind speeds of less than 3 mph
|
||
(due to inversion potential) or more than 10 mph. However,
|
||
many factors, including droplet size and equipment type
|
||
determine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID
|
||
GUSTY OR WINDLESS CONDITIONS.
|
||
Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every
|
||
applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and
|
||
how they affect spray drift.

|
||
Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if
|
||
fog is not present, inversions can also be identified 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.
|
||
|
||
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
|
||
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce the
|
||
effects of wind. However, it is the responsibility of the
|
||
applicator to verify that the shields are preventing drift and
|
||
not interfering with unifonn deposition of the product.
|
||
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
|
||
This product may be used as part of an Integrated Pest
|
||
Management (IPM) program that can include biological,
|
||
cultural, and genetic practices aimed at preventing economic
|
||
pest damage. IPM principles and practices include field·
|
||
scouting or other detection methods, correct target pest
|
||
identification, population monitoring, and treating when
|
||
target pest populations reach locally detennined action
|
||
thresholds. Consult your state cooperative extension service,
|
||
professional consultants or other qualified authorities to
|
||
detennine appropriflte action treatment threshold levels for
|
||
treating specific pest/crop systems in your area.
|
||
RESISTANCE
|
||
When herbicides that affect the same biological site of
|
||
action are used repeatedly over several years to control the
|
||
same weed species in the same field, naturally-occurring
|
||
resistant biotypes may survive a correctly appliedberbicide
|
||
treatment, propagate, and become dominant in that field.
|
||
Adequate control of these resistant weed biotypes cannot be
|
||
expected. If weed control is unsatisfactory, it may be
|
||
necessary to retreat the problem area using a product
|
||
affecting a different site of action.
|
||
To better manage herbicide resistance through delaying the
|
||
proliferation and possible dominance of herbicide resistant
|
||
weed biotypes, it may be necessary to change cultural
|
||
practices within and between crop seasons such as using a
|
||
combination of tillage, retreatment, tank-mix partners
|
||
and/or sequential herbicide applications that have a different
|
||
site of action. Weed escapes that are allowed to go to seed
|
||
will promote the spread of resistant biotypes.
|
||
It is advisable to keep accurate records of pesticides applied
|
||
to individual fields to help obtain infonnation on the spread
|
||
and dispersal of resistant biotypes. Consult your
|
||
agricultural dealer, consultant, applicator, and/or appropriate
|
||
state agricultural extension service representative for
|
||
specific alternative cultural practices or herbicide
|
||
recommendations available in your area.
|
