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).

|

Dear Mr. Levey:
|
||
|
||
The amended labeling referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under the Federal
|
||
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, is acceptable under FIFRA section
|
||
3(c)(5).
|
||
|
||
You must submit and/or cite all data required for registration or registration review of your product
|
||
when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires all registrants of similar products to
|
||
submit such data.
|
||
|
||
A stamped copy of your labeling is enclosed for your records. This labeling supersedes all previously
|
||
accepted labeling. You must submit one (1) copy of the final printed labeling before you release this
|
||
product for shipment with the new labeling. In accordance with 40 CFR § 152.130(c), you may
|
||
distribute or sell this product under the previously approved labeling for 18 months from the date of this
|
||
letter. After 18 months, you may only distribute or sell this product if it bears this new revised labeling
|
||
or subsequently approved labeling. “To distribute or sell” is defined under FIFRA section 2(gg) and its
|
||
implementing regulation at 40 CFR § 152.3.
|
||
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to your company’s website on your label, then please be
|
||
aware that the website becomes labeling under FIFRA and is subject to review by the EPA. If the
|
||
website is false or misleading, the product will be considered to be misbranded and sale or distribution
|
||
of the product is unlawful under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR § 156.10(a)(5) lists examples of
|
||
statements the EPA may consider false or misleading. In addition, regardless of whether a website is
|
||
referenced on your product’s label, claims made on the website may not substantially differ from those

EPA Reg. No. 100-1469
|
||
OPP Case No. 00144417
|
||
|
||
claims approved through the registration process. Therefore, should the EPA find or if it is brought to
|
||
our attention that a website contains false or misleading statements or claims substantially differing from
|
||
the EPA-approved registration, the website will be referred to the EPA’s Office of Enforcement and
|
||
Compliance Assurance.
|
||
|
||
Your release for shipment of this product constitutes acceptance of these terms. If these terms are not
|
||
complied with, this registration will be subject to cancellation in accordance with FIFRA section 6.

||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
Afla-Guard GR is a biological control agent for displacing the strains of Aspergillus
|
||
flavus (A. flavus). The active ingredient in Afla-Guard GR is a nontoxigenic strain of A.
|
||
flavus (NRRL 21882). Afla-Guard GR acts by competitively displacing toxigenic,
|
||
aflatoxin-producing strains of A. flavus on labeled crops. Afla-Guard GR is for use on
|
||
[almonds, peanuts, pistachios, and corn (field and popcorn)] only.
|
||
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
|
||
Use this product only in accordance 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 statement 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 4 hours.
|
||
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:
|
||
x Coveralls
|
||
x Waterproof gloves
|
||
x Shoes plus socks
|
||
x
|
||
A NIOSH-approved particulate respirator wi th any N, R or P filter with NIOSH
|
||
approval number prefix TC-84A; or a NIOSH- approved powered air purifying
|
||
respirator with an HE filter with NIOSH approval number prefix TC-21C
|
||
x Goggles
|
||
USE DIRECTIONS
|
||
For aerial applications: Avoiding drift at the application site is the responsibility of the
|
||
applicator. The interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determine
|
||
the potential for drift. The applicator and treatment coordinator are responsible for
|
||
considering all these factors when making decisions.
|
||
Peanuts
|
||
Ground Application: Apply Afla-Guard GR at 20 lb/Acre (A) in a band over crop rows
|
||
by using a tractor-mounted Gandy box or by broadcast application. Apply at full canopy
|
||
(40-80 days after planting). At the time of application, the width of a peanut row
|
||
(measured from the outer edges of the foliage canopy) is ideally about 18 inches.
|
||
|
||
Afla-Guard GR
|
||
Page 5
|
||
Aerial Application: Apply by air at 20 lb/A broadcast. Apply as soon as practical after
|
||
closure of the peanut canopy, within 90 days after planting.
|
||
Do not exceed 20 lb/A per growing season.
|
||
Corn (field corn and popcorn)
|
||
Ground and Aerial Application: Apply Afla-Guard GR from growth stage V7 to R1
|
||
(the V7 growth stage is when there are 7 visible leaf collars present and the R1 growth
|
||
stage is the onset of silking) using broadcast application equipment. Cultivation or other
|
||
mechanical operations that may move soil so that it covers the Afla-Guard GR grain
|
||
may preclude maximum performance. Therefore, DO NOT APPLY AFLA-GUARD GR
|
||
UNTIL ALL CULTIVATION OR OTHER MECHANICAL OPERATIONS ARE
|
||
COMPLETED.
|
||
Do not exceed 20 lb/A per growing season.
|
||
Apply Afla-Guard GR at a use rate of 10-20 lb/A.
|
||
Under environmental conditions that promote severe aflatoxin levels or when historically
|
||
high levels of aflatoxin have occurred in the past in your area, use the 20 lb/A rate.
|
||
Rescue treatment: If an initial rate of 10 lb/A was applied, a rescue treatment of 10 lb/A
|
||
may follow if environmental conditions are anticipated to reduce the efficacy of Afla-
|
||
Guard GR (i.e. flooding), or when higher than usual levels of aflatoxin are expected.
|
||
Almond and Pistachio
|
||
Ground Application:
|
||
1. Apply Afla-Guard GR to the surface of the soil under the plant canopy with a
|
||
granular applicator. DO NOT COVER THE APPLIED PRODUCT WITH SOIL.
|
||
2. Adjust the applicator to optimize delivery of Afla-Guard GR under the canopy and
|
||
to minimize delivery of Afla-Guard GR to areas that do not get wet.
|
||
3. Afla-Guard GR has been shown to be effective when applied in Pistachio from
|
||
late May through early July, and in Almond from late May through early July.
|
||
4. Rain or irrigation within 3 days after application of Afla-Guard GR will improve
|
||
results.
|
||
5. Use 10 lb of Afla-Guard GR per acre.
|
||
6. Do not apply more than once per year.
|
||
7. Do not apply to almonds in bloom.
|
||
STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
|
||
Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal.
|
||
Pesticide Storage: Store in a dry, cool place out of direct sunlight and away from heat
|
||
sources. Keep from overheating. Storage temperatures are not to exceed 90ºF. Do
|
||
not use product more than 4 months after purchase or save product for use in the
|
||
subsequent season.
