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.

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).

NOTE TO PHYSICIANS
|
||
This product contains a phenoxy herbicidal chemical. There is no specific antidote. All treatments should be based on observed
|
||
signs and symptoms of distress in the patient. Probable mucosal damage may contraindicate the use of gastric lavage.
|
||
Overexposure to materials other than this product may have occurred.
|
||
|
||
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
|
||
This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates and may adversely affect non-target plants.
|
||
For Terrestrial Uses: Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high
|
||
water mark. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. Do not contaminate water
|
||
when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate.
|
||
This product contains a chemical with properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of
|
||
this chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in groundwater contamination.
|
||
Application around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or groundwater.
|
||
For Aquatic Uses: Fish breathe dissolved oxygen in the water and decaying weeds also use oxygen. When treating continuous, dense
|
||
weed masses, it may be appropriate to treat only part of the infestation at a time. For example, apply the product in lanes sep arated
|
||
by untreated strips that can be treated after vegetation in treated lanes has disintegrated. During the growing season, weeds decompose
|
||
in a 2 to 3 week period following treatment. Begin treatment along the shore and proceed outwards in bands to allow fish to move into
|
||
untreated areas. Waters having limited and less dense weed infestations may not require partial treatments.
|
||
|
||
3
|
||
Do not contaminate water used for irrigation or domestic purposes (except as specifically listed on this label) especially in areas where
|
||
grapes, cotton, tomatoes or other susceptible plants are grown.
|
||
Do not treat irrigation ditches in areas where water will be used to overhead (sprinkler) irrigate susceptible crops especially grapes,
|
||
tomatoes, tobacco, and cotton.
|
||
Do not apply this product directly to, or permit to drift onto cotton, okra, grapes, tomatoes, fruit trees, vegetables, flowers or other
|
||
desirable crop or ornamental plants which are susceptible to 2,4-D herbicide. Do not apply near susceptible plants since very s mall
|
||
quantities of the 2,4-D will cause severe injury during the growing or dormant periods. Crops contacted by this product sprays or spray
|
||
drift may be killed or suffer significant stand loss with extensive quality and yield reduction.
|
||
MIXING AND LOADING: Most cases of ground water contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-D have been associated
|
||
with mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-D pesticides at such sites to prevent
|
||
contamination of ground water supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills.
|
||
Placement of the mixing/loading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent ground water contamination.
|
||
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
|
||
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
|
||
Read entire label before using this product.
|
||
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers
|
||
may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide
|
||
regulation.
|
||

|
||
PRODUCT INFORMATION
|
||
INJURY TO CROPS FROM THIS HERBICIDE MAY OCCUR. IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO ACCEPT SOME DEGREE OF CROP
|
||
INJURY DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT.
|
||
Crop varieties vary in response to 2,4-D and some are easily injured. Apply this product only to varieties known to be tolerant to
|
||
2,4-D. If you are uncertain concerning tolerant varieties or local use situations that may affect crop tolerance to 2,4-D, cons ult your
|
||
seed company, State Agricultural Extension Service or qualified crop consultant for advice.
|
||
Be sure that use of this product conforms to all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Certain states have restrictions perta ining to
|
||
application distances from susceptible crops. The applicator should become familiar with these laws, rules or regulations and follow them
|
||
exactly.
|
||
|
||
WEED RESISTANCE
|
||
Any weed population may contain plants that are naturally resistant to 2,4-D, the active ingredient in this product, and to other herbicides
|
||
with the same mode of action. ATTENTION: These resistant weed biotypes will not be controlled by this product. Consult advisors such
|
||
as your local agricultural extension service for agronomic management practices to minimize the occurrence of glyphosate resistance
|
||
and considerations for supplemental control measures.
|
||
|
||
4
|
||
Weed Management
|
||
To minimize the occurrence of glyphosate-resistant biotypes, observe the following general weed management practices:
|
||
• Scout application site before and after herbicide applications.
|
||
• Start with a clean application site, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage.
|
||
• Control weeds early when they are relatively small.
|
||
• Add other herbicides (e.g. a selective and/or a residual herbicide) and cultural practices (e.g. tillage or crop rotation) whe re
|
||
appropriate.
|
||
• Utilize the specified label rate for the most difficult to control weed in your field. Avoid tank mixtures with other herbicides that reduce
|
||
this product’s efficacy (through antagonism), or tank mixture directions that encourage application rates of this product below the
|
||
label directions.
|
||
• Control weed escapes and prevent weeds from setting seeds.
|
||
• Clean equipment before moving from field to field to minimize the spread of weed seed or plant parts.
|
||
• Report any incidence of repeated non-performance of this product on a particular weed to your Nufarm representative, local retailer,
|
||
or county extension agent.
|
||
|
||
Management of Glyphosate-Resistant Biotypes
|
||
Since the occurrence of new glyphosate-resistant weeds cannot be determined until after product use and scientific confirmation ,
|
||
manufacturer is not responsible for any losses that may result from the failure of this product to control glyphosate-resistant weed
|
||
biotypes.
|
||
|
||
The following good agronomic practices are recommended to reduce the spread of confirmed glyphosate-resistant biotypes:
|
||
• If a naturally occurring resistant biotype is present in your application site, this product should be tank-mixed or applied s equentially
|
||
with an appropriately labeled herbicide with a different mode of action to achieve control.
|
||
• Cultural and mechanical control practices (e.g. crop rotation or tillage) may also be used as appropriate.
|
||
• Scout treated application site after herbicide applications and control escaping weeds including resistant biotypes before the y set
|
||
seed.
|
||
• Thoroughly clean equipment before leaving fields known to contain resistant biotypes.
|
||
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
Add about one-half the water to the mixing tank, then add this product with agitation and finally the rest of water with contin uing
|
||
agitation.
|
||
NOTE: Adding oil, wetting agent, or other surfactants to the spray may increase effectiveness on weeds but also may reduce
|
||
selectivity to crops, resulting in crop damage.
|
||
COMPATIBILITY
|
||
If this product is to be tank mixed with fertilizers or with 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 quart) of spray, combining all ingredients in the same ra tio 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 to 15 minutes after mixing.
|
||
Read and follow all directions and precautions on this label and on the labels of any products for which a tank mixture is bein g
|
||
considered.
|
||
APPLICATION PROCEDURES
|
||
Apply by air or ground equipment in sufficient gallonage to obtain adequate coverage, except as otherwise directed on this label.
|
||
Use 2 or more gallons of water per acre for aerial application and 10 or more gallons of water per acre for ground application.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction, wind speed, temperature, relative humidity) and method of
|
||
application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast) can influence pesticide drift. The applicator must evaluate all factors and make a ppropriate
|
||
adjustments when applying this product.
|
||
Droplet Size
|
||
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D as the sole active ingredient, or when applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed with ac tive
|
||
ingredients that require a Coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a Coarse or coarser spray ( ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean
|
||
diameter of 385 microns or greater for spinning atomizer nozzles.
|
||
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed with other active ingredients that require a Medium or more fine spray, apply only as
|
||
a Medium or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 300 microns or greater for spinning atomizer
|
||
nozzles.
|
||
Wind Speed
|
||
Do not apply at wind speeds greater than 15 mph. Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-target deposition and there
|
||
are no sensitive areas (including, but not limited to, residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for nontarget species, nontarget
|
||
crops) within 250 feet downwind. If applying a Medium spray, leave one swath unsprayed at the downwind edge of the treated field.
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
Temperature Inversions
|
||
If applying at wind speeds less than 3 mph, the applicator must determine if: a) conditions of temperature inversion exist, or b) stable
|
||
atmospheric conditions exist at or below nozzle height. Do not make applications into areas of temperature inversions or stable
|
||
atmospheric conditions.
|
||
Susceptible Plants
|
||
Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occur to food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged or crops
|
||
thereof rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption. Susceptible crops include, but are not limited to, cotton, okra, flowers, grapes (in
|
||
growing stage), fruit trees (foliage), soybeans (vegetative stage), ornamentals, sunflowers, tomatoes, beans, and other vegetables, or
|
||
tobacco. Small amounts of spray drift that might not be visible may injure susceptible broadleaf plants.
|
||
Other State and Local Requirements
|
||
Applicators must follow all state and local pesticide drift requirements regarding application of 2,4-D herbicides. Where states have more
|
||
stringent regulations, they must be observed.
|
||
Equipment
|
||
All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers or surrogates .
|
||
Additional requirements for aerial applications:
|
||
The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotor blade diameter.
|
||
Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety. Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above
|
||
the crop canopy unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. This requirement does not apply to forestry or rights- of-way
|
||
applications.
|
||
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate for this by
|
||
adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
|
||
Additional requirements for ground boom application:
|
||
Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.

|
||
may be used and may be required in some cases under State or local law or as a condition of a permit.
|
||
Example: Posting notification should be located every 250 feet including the shoreline of the treated area and up to 250 feet of
|
||
shoreline past the application site to include immediate public access points. Posting must include the day and time of
|
||
application. Posting may be removed if analysis of a sample collected at the intake 3 or more days following application shows
|
||
that the concentration in the water is less than 70 ppb (100 ppb for irrigation or sprays), or after 7 days following applicati on,
|
||
whichever occurs first.
|
||
Text of notification: Wait 7 days before diverting functioning surface water intakes from the treated aquatic site to use as
|
||
drinking water, irrigation, or sprays, unless water at functioning drinking water intakes is tested at least 3 days after appli cation
|
||
and is demonstrated by assay to contain not more than 70 ppb 2,4-D (100 ppb for irrigation or sprays).
|
||
Application Date: ______ Time: _____ .
|
||
D. Following each application of this product, treated water must not be used for drinking water unless one of the following
|
||
restrictions has been observed:

|
||
How To Use: To control water milfoil when less than 5 gallons of concentrate per acre is recommended, dilute the concentrate with
|
||
water to apply a minimum of 5 gallons of spray mix per acre. Do not treat within 1/2 mile of potable water intakes. Shoreline a reas
|
||
should be treated by sub-surface injection applied by boat to avoid aerial drift. Do not apply when weather conditions favor dr ift from
|
||
target area. Do not contaminate water by cleaning of equipment washwaters.
|
||

|
||
areas that are not infested with aquatic weeds.
|
||
Amounts To Use: Apply 2.5 to 2.75 gallons of this product per acre. The higher rate is used in areas of greater water exchange. These
|
||
areas may require a repeat application.
|
||
When To Apply: For best results, apply in spring or early summer when milfoil starts to grow. This timing can be checked by sampling
|
||
the lake bottom in areas heavily infested with weeds the year before.
|
||
Subsurface Application: Apply 2.5 to 2.75 gallons of this product per acre as a concentrate directly into the water through boat
|
||
mounted distribution systems.
|
||
Surface Application: Apply 2.5 to 2.75 gallons of this product per acre in a minimum spray volume of 5 gallons mix per acre.
|
||
Air Application: Use drift control spray equipment or thickening agents mixed into the spray solution. Apply 2.5 to 2.75 gallons per
|
||
acre of this product through standard boom systems with a minimum of 5 gallons of spray mix per acre. For MICROFOIL® drift control
|
||
spray systems apply this product in 12 to 15 gallons spray mix per acre.

If treated water is intended to be used to irrigate or mix sprays for unlabeled crops, noncrop areas or other plants not labele d
|
||
for direct treatment with 2,4-D, the water must not be used unless one of the following restrictions has been observed:
|
||
i. A setback distance described in the Drinking Water Setback Table was used for the application, or,
|
||
ii. A waiting period of 21 days from the time of application has elapsed, or,
|
||
iii. An approved assay indicates that the 2,4-D concentration is 100 ppb (0.1 ppm) or less at the water intake. See Table 3
|
||
for the waiting period after application but before taking the initial sampling at water intake.
|
||
2. Drinking water (potable water):
|
||
A. Consult with appropriate state or local water authorities before applying this product to public waters. State or local agencies may
|
||
require permits. The potable water use restrictions on this label are to ensure that consumption of water by the public is allowed
|
||
only when the concentration of 2,4-D in the water is less than the MCL (Maximum Contaminant Level) of 70 ppb. Applicators
|
||
should consider the unique characteristics of the treated waters to assure that 2,4-D concentrations in potable water do not
|
||
exceed 70 ppb at the time of consumption.
|
||
B. For submersed weed applications, the drinking water setback distances from functioning potable water intakes are provided in
|
||
Table 2. Drinking Water Setback Distance (below).
|
||
C. If no setback distance from the Drinking Water Setback Distance Table (Table 2) is to be used for the application, applicators or
|
||
the authorizing organization must provide a drinking water notification and an advisory to shut off all potable water intakes prior
|
||
to a 2,4-D application. Notification to the party responsible for a public water supply or to individual private water users must be
|
||
done in a manner to assure that the party is aware of the water use restrictions when this product is applied to potable water.
|
||
The following is an example of a notification via posting, but other methods of notification which convey the above restriction s
|
||
may be used and may be required in some cases under State or local law or as a condition of a permit.
|
||
Example: Posting notification should be located every 250 feet including the shoreline of the treated area and up to 250 feet of
|
||
shoreline past the application site to include immediate public access points. Posting should include the day and time of
|
||
application. Posting may be removed if analysis of a sample collected at the intake no sooner than stated in Table 3 (below)
|
||
shows that the concentration in the water is less than 70 ppb (100 ppb for irrigation or sprays), or after 21 days following
|
||
application, whichever occurs first.
|
||
|
||
20
|
||
Text of notification: Wait 21 days before diverting functioning surface water intakes from the treated aquatic site to use as
|
||
drinking water, irrigation, or sprays, unless water at functioning drinking water intakes is tested no sooner than (insert days from
|
||
Table 3) and is demonstrated by assay to contain not more than 70 ppb 2,4-D (100 ppb for irrigation or sprays).
|
||
Application Date: ______ Time: _____ .
|
||
D. Following each application of this product, treated water must not be used for drinking water unless one of the following
|
||
restrictions has been observed:
|
||
i. A setback distance described in the Drinking Water Setback Distance Table was used for the application, or
|
||
ii. A waiting period of at least 21 days from the time of application has elapsed, or,
|
||
iii. An approved assay indicates that the 2,4-D concentration is 70 ppb (0.07 ppm) or less at the water intake. Sampling for
|
||
drinking water analysis should occur no sooner than stated in Table 3. Analysis of samples must be completed by a laboratory
|
||
that is certified under the Safe Drinking Water Act to perform drinking water analysis using a currently approved version of
|
||
analytical Method Number 515, 555, other methods for 2,4-D as may be listed in Title 40 CFR, Part 141.24, or Method
|
||
Number 4015 (immunoassay of 2,4-D) from U.S. EPA Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste SW-846.
|
||
E. Note: Existing potable water intakes that are no longer in use, such as those replaced by a connection to a municipal water
|
||
system or a potable water well, are not considered to be functioning potable water intakes.
|
||
F. Drinking water setback distances do not apply to terrestrial applications of 2,4-D adjacent to water bodies with potable water
|
||
intakes.
|
||
3. Except as stated above, there are no restrictions on using water from treated areas for swimming, fishing, watering livestock or
|
||
domestic purposes.
