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).

3.0 PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
A23545 ST is a broad-spectrum seed treatment fungicide that consists of four fungicide
|
||
active ingredients: fludioxonil, mefenoxam, picarbutrazox, and sedaxane. Each active
|
||
ingredient has a different mode of action against fungal pathogens. This fungicide seed
|
||
treatment is designed for protection against many important fungal plant diseases. A23545
|
||
ST may be applied in tank mixes or sequentially with other registered seed treatment
|
||
pesticide products such as Cruiser® 5FS (EPA Reg. No. 100-941, containing thiamethoxam)
|
||
or Fortenza® (EPA Reg. Nos. 100-1418 and 100-1420, containing cyantraniliprole)
|
||
insecticides or Saltro® (EPA Reg. No. 100-1648, containing pydiflumetofen)
|
||
fungicide/nematicide.
|
||
|
||
Fludioxonil protects against seed-borne and soil-borne Fusarium and Rhizoctonia spp. that
|
||
cause seed decay, damping-off, and seedling blight. This active ingredient also provides
|
||
protection from seed-borne Diaporthe-Phomopsis disease complex sometimes referred to as
|
||
pod and stem blight (Phomopsis and Diaporthe spp.). Fludioxonil suppresses seed-borne
|
||
Sclerotinia and Phomopsis spp.
|
||
|
||
Mefenoxam is active against Pythium and Phytophthora spp.
|
||
|
||
Picarbutrazox provides early-season protection against Pythium and Phytophthora spp. that
|
||
cause seed rot and damping-off.
|
||
|
||
A23545 ST
|
||

|
||
|
||
|
||
Sedaxane is active against seed decay, seedling blight, and damping-off caused by
|
||
Rhizoctonia spp.
|
||
|
||
To comply with 40 CFR 153.155, all treated seed must be colored with an EPA-approved dye
|
||
or colorant of a suitable color to prevent accidental use as food for man or feed for animals.
|
||
|
||
3.1 Resistance Management
|
||
|
||
For resistance management, please note that A23545 ST contains fludioxonil, a Group 12
|
||
fungicide; mefenoxam, a Group 4 fungicide; picarbutrazox, a Group U17 fungicide; and
|
||
sedaxane, a Group 7 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally
|
||
resistant to A23545 ST and other Group 4, Group 7, Group 12, or Group U17 fungicides. A
|
||
gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used
|
||
repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be
|
||
followed.
|
||
|
||
Fludioxonil belongs to the phenylpyrrole class of chemistry, which interferes with osmotic
|
||
signal transduction. Mefenoxam belongs to the phenylamide class of chemistry, which
|
||
interferes with fungal RNA synthesis. Picarbutrazox belongs to the tetra-zolyloximes class of
|
||
fungicides and is not known to be cross-resistant with fungicides that have different modes of
|
||
action. Sedaxane is a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) and belongs to the
|
||
carboxamide class of chemistry, which disrupts cellular respiration and energy generation.
|
||
|
||
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
• Rotate the use of A23545 ST or other Group 4, Group 7, Group 12, or Group U17
|
||
fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same
|
||
pathogens.
|
||
• Use tank mixtures with fungicide from a different group that are equally effective on the
|
||
target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum application rate as
|
||
labeled by the manufacturer.
|
||
• Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that includes
|
||
scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use and crop rotation, and
|
||
considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease
|
||
development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control
|
||
practices.
|
||
• Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide
|
||
applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage
|
||
resistance.
|
||
• Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development.
|
||
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide
|
||
resistance-management and/or Integrated Pest Management (IPM) recommendations for
|
||
specific crop and pathogens.

4.0 APPLICATION DIRECTIONS
|
||
Important: Always recirculate A23545 ST thoroughly before using.
|
||
|
||
Follow the manufacturer’s application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being
|
||
used.
|
||
The typical density of A23545 ST is 8.85 pounds per gallon. Consult the manufacturer of the
|
||
application equipment you plan to use for suitability for this application and for instructions on
|
||
operation and calibration of the equipment. Follow the manufacturer’s application instructions
|
||
for the seed treatment equipment being used.
|
||
Apply A23545 ST as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry seed treatment equipment
|
||
that provides uniform seed coverage. Seed treaters with atomizers or spinning discs are
|
||
highly recommended for better product coverage on the seed. Uneven or incomplete seed
|
||
coverage may not give the desired level of disease control. Thoroughly mix the specified
|
||
amount of A23545 ST into the required amount of water or liquid inoculant for the slurry
|
||
treater and dilution rate to be used.
|
||
Certain crops require addition of inoculants when the seed is treated or planted. A23545 ST
|
||
is compatible with several liquid inoculant products. Consult the maker of the inoculant
|
||
product and a Syngenta Crop Protection representative for directions before applying A23545
|
||
ST with inoculants.
|
||
Continuous agitation or mixing of the slurry mixture is necessary to prevent settling out of the
|
||
solution. Clean out any unused product from the treater after treating or maintain constant
|
||
agitation if the leftover slurry will be maintained overnight.
|
||
[Use an EPA-approved dye or colorant that imparts an unnatural color to the seed as
|
||
required in 40 CFR 153.155(c).]
|
||
Allow seed to dry before bagging.
|
||
Follow planter manufacturer’s specifications for use of talc or other hopper box additives at
|
||
planting. Seed must be completely dry before adding to planter.
|
||
4.1 Tank Mixtures
|
||
A23545 ST mixes easily with water and other water-based seed treatments manufactured by

6.0 SEED CONTAINER LABEL REQUIREMENTS
|
||
The Federal Seed Act requires that containers of treated seeds must be labeled with the
|
||
following statements:
|
||
• This seed has been treated with fludioxonil, mefenoxam, picarbutrazox, and sedaxane
|
||
fungicides.
|
||
• DO NOT use for feed, food, or oil purposes.
|
||
|
||

|
||
containing seed treated with A23545 ST:
|
||
• Store treated seed away from feed and foodstuffs.
|
||
• DO NOT allow children, pets, or livestock to have access to treated seed.
|
||
• Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants and chemical resistant gloves when handling treated
|
||
seed.
|
||
