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).

|
||
GENERAL INFORMATION
|
||
Apply CONTOUR herbicide only on selected field com hybrids (IMI-Com) warranted by the seed company
|
||
to possess resistance/tolerance to direct applications of imazethapyr (pURSUIT®) herbicide. DO NOT apply
|
||
CONTOUR to corn hybrids which lack resistance/(.)lerance to imazethapyr (pURSUIT) herbicide. Contact
|
||
your seed supplier, chemical dealer ur American Cyanamid to obtain information regarding IMI-Corn hybrids.
|
||
CONTOUR can be applied early preplant, preplant incorporated, preemergence, or postemergence on IMI
|
||
Corn hybrids. The application method of choice will depend on the anticipated weed spectrum and the
|
||
preference of the applicator.
|
||
CONTOUR herbicide kills weeds by root ancVor foliage uptake and rapid translocation to tlle growing points.
|
||
Adequate soil moisture is important for optimum CONTOUR activity. When adequate soil moisture is
|
||
present, CONTOUR will provide residual control of susceptible germinating weeds; activity on established
|
||
weeds will depend on the weed species and the location of its root system in the soil.
|
||
Usc of CONTOUR herbicide in accordance with label directions is expected to result in nonnal growth of
|
||
rotational crops; however, various environmental and agronomic factors make it impossible to eliminate all
|
||
risks associated with the usc of this product and, therefore. rotational crop injury is always possible. Under
|
||
sOllle conditions (such as heavy texture soil, high organic matter, low pH or low rainfall) CONTOUR lIlay cause
|
||
injury to subsequent planted crops. Sec the ROTATIONAL CROP GUIDELINE section of this label for
|
||
recommended rotation intervals to sensitive crops.
|
||
Crops growing under stressful environmental conditions can exhibit various injury symptoms which may be
|
||
more pronounced if herbicides are used. Com plants treated with CONTOUR may exhibit yellowing on new
|
||
growth. Such effects occur infrequently and are temporary. Nornlal growth and appearance should resume
|
||
within I to 2 weeks.
|
||
|
||
Naturally occuning bio'ypcs' of some of the weeds listed on this lahel may not be effectively ('<)ntwllell by
|
||
this an(Vor other products with either tile ALSI AHAS enzyme inhibiting mode of action or the photosynthesis
|
||
inhibiting m(xle of action. Otiler herbicides with tlle AL"I AliAS enzyme inhibiting mode of action include the
|
||
sulfonylureas (r g. AccentT", Basis™, ClassieT", Coneen T", ExceedT", Pennit T", Pinnacle T", etc.) tile
|
||
sulf~lI1amides (e.g. Broadstrike T", etc.) and tlle pyrimidyl benzoate (e.g. StapleT", etc.), Herbicides witll tlle
|
||
photosyntllesis inhibiting mode of action inclUde the tIia;1jne herbicides (e.g, atrazine, BJadexTM, Extrazine™,
|
||
Sencor™, etc.). If naturally occuning biotypcs are present in a field which are resistant to one of tlle
|
||
herbicides in this premix and arc not controlled by tl1c other mode of action herbicide in tllis premix,
|
||
CONTOUR should be tank-mixed or applied sequentially witll an appropriate registered herbicide having a
|
||
different mode of action to ~nsure control.
|
||
* A weed biotype is a naturaIly occuning individual witllin a given species Jmt has a &lightiy

, )
|
||
Replanting: If replanting is necessary in a field previously treated with CONTOUR, the field may be
|
||
replanted to U.lI-Com. Rework the soil no deeper than thl' treated zone. DO NOT apply a second treatment
|
||
of CONTOUR.
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
POSTEMERGENCE APPLICATIONS OF CONTOUR HERBICIDE REQUIRE ADDITION OF AN
|
||
ADJUV ANT AND A LIQUID FERTILIZER· SOLUTION.
|
||
I. ADJUVANTS
|
||
SURFACTANTS: Use a nonionic sw-factant containing at least 80% active ingredient. Apply the
|
||
surfactant at the rate of I quart per 100 gallons of spray solution.
|
||
OR
|
||
CROP OIL CONCENTRATE: Instead of a surfactant, a petroleum or vegetable seed oil based crop
|
||
oil concentrate (such as SUN-IT nTM) may he used. SUN-IT n is recommended when wee(i~ arc
|
||
under moisture or temperature stress. Use SUN-IT II, or otller methylated seed oils, at tlle .ate of 1.5
|
||
to 2 pints per acre (use tlle higher rate when weeds are at tlle maximum label size), or usc a crop oil
|
||
concentrate at 2 pints per acre.
|
||
AND
|
||
II. LIQUID FERTILIZER SOLUTION
|
||
Recommended nitrogen hased fenilizers include liqUid fertilizers (such as 28%N, 32%N or 10-34-(1)
|
||
at the rate of 1-2 quarts per acre. Usc the higher rate whcn weeds arc under moisture or temperature
|
||
stfess. Instead of a liquid fertilizer, spray grade ammonium sulfate may be used at tile rate of 7. ;
|
||
f'<1I1 mls per acre.
|
||
Nute: In case of a compatihility prohlem when mixing crop oil concentrate or methylated seed oil with
|
||
this pr(xluct and water, usc of a phosphate-contail1lng compatihility agent is reCOl1lll1Cllllct1.
|
||
• ('( lNT( lUR applications lIlay he made with a nOll-Ionic surfactant only (liquid fertilizer not required) in t'le
|
||
states of Arkansas, Boothecl of Missouri, Tennessee. South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi. Alahamd,

|
||
|
||
Fill Ihe spray lank one-half 10 thr('c-tlJUnhs full with clean watcr, Use a calibratell IIIcmmring device to
|
||
measure thc requirell amount of CONTOUR. Add CONTOUR to the spray tank while vigorously agitating,
|
||
Proper agitation should provide a continuous rippling or IIllling action across the solution surface, Use of
|
||
sparge bars or jet agitation is recommendr.d, AcId adjuvarts and fill the remainder of the tank with water.
|
||
Maintain agitation while spraying to ensure a uniform spray mixture, An antifoaming agent may be added to
|
||
the tank if needed,
|
||
DO NOT apply CONTOU.{ with liquid fertilizer as a carrier for postemergence applications,
|
||
When tank-mixing CONTOUR herbicide with recommended herbicides, add the other herbicides and other
|
||
components in the following order, while agitating:
|
||
I, Fill spray tank 112 to 3/4 full with clean water.
|
||
2, Add soluble packet products and thoroughly nux,
|
||
3, Add WP (wettable powder), DG (dispen'ible granule), OF (dry flowable), or LF (liquid flowable)
|
||
formulations.
|
||
4, Add CONTOUR and thoroughly mix.
|
||
5. Add aqueous solution products and thoroughly mix.
|
||
6. Add other EC (emulsifiable concentrate) products.
|
||
7, Add surfactant or crop oil to the spray tank.
|
||
8, Add liquid fertilizer.
|
||
9, While agitating, fil1 the remaintkr of the tank with water.
|
||
Compatibility Testing
|
||
T(, ensure compal1bility of CONTOUR in liquid fertilizer (soil applications only) or in tankmixes with "ther
|
||
herbicides and water, a jar compatibility test is recommended, Check compatibility using the following
|
||
procedure:
|
||
I, Add I pint of carrier (lil]uid fertilizer or w'Hcr) to each of 2, one quart. jars with tight lids.
|
||
2. To one of thc jars add 114 teaspoon of a phosphate-containing compatibility agcnt, Agitate thc solution.
|
||
J To [)otl! jars, add the appropriate amount of herbicide(s) in the following ordcr: dry formulations (WI',
|
||
DC;. DF, LF, SG (soluble granule), CONTOUR, aqueous solutions, and EC's,
|
||
Approximate Herbicide Use Rates:
|
||
Dry Formulations: Add 1/4 teaspoon for every 2.5 ounces of product used per acre.
|
||
Liquid Formulations: Add 112 teaspoon for every pint of product used per acre.
|
||
4. Alter adding all ingredients to each jar, attach lids and invert jars IO times to mix. Allow the mixture to
|
||
stand for 15 minutes then IlXlk for signs of incompatibility such as separation or preCipitate fomlation
|
||
(flakes, crystals, films, etc.). Determine if the compatibility agent prevents incompatibility and usc
|
||
accordingly.
|
||
To avoid injury to sensitive crops, s~ray equipn:cnt used for CONTOUR applications must he drained and

SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
(iROUNI> APPLICATI()NS: Unililflllly apply with pf()p,~rJy calibrated gmund c4uipIlI,~nt in 10 or more
|
||
gallons of water per acre. A spray pressure of 20 to 40 psi is rl~conHIlCnde(i.
|
||
To ensure tilorough cOVl'ragc, use a minimum of 20 gallons of water per acre when applying CONTOUR to
|
||
minimum or no-till IMI-Corn. Use higher gallonage for llelds with dense vegetation or heavy crop residues.
|
||
Adjust the boom height to ensure proper coverage of weed foliage (according to the manufacturer's
|
||
recommclIllation). Use only flat-fan nozzles for post emergence applications.
|
||
-\ void overlaps when spraying.
|
||
DO NOT apply with ground equipment when wind velocity is greater than 10 mph, or when SpITty may be
|
||
carried to sensitive crops. Sensitive crops include leafy vegetables, sugarbeets, red table beets and cotton.
|
||
AERIAL APPLICATIONS: Uniformly apply witl! properly calibrated aerial equipment in 5 or more gallons
|
||
of viater per acre. When applied POSTEMERGENCE, tile addition of a non-ionic surfactant AND fertilizer
|
||
solution are required for optimum weed control; apply a non-ionic surfactant at the rate of 1 quart per 100
|
||
gallons of spray mixture OR ins(.;ad of a non-ionic surfactant, add a petroleum or vegetable based seed oil
|
||
(such as SUN-IT JFM) at the rate of 1.25 gallons per 100 gailolL~ of spray mixture AND a liquid fertitizer at
|
||
the rate of I qUaIl per acre.
|
||
To avoid injury to sensitive crops from drift, aerial appli"'1tors n:ust adhere to (toe following
|
||
SPECIAL AERIAL USE DIRECfIONS AND PRECAUTIONS.
|
||
Nozzle height above ground must be a maximum of 10 feet.
|

USE RATE
|
||
(I-W PINTS PEI{ ACRE)
|
||
Apply CONTOUR at a hroadcast rate of 1-1/3 pints per acre for all methods of application: early preplant,
|
||
preplant incorporated, prccmergence (including minimum and no-till), aJl(1 postcmcrgcnce. At this broadcast
|
||
rate, one gallon of CONTOUR will treat 6 acres of IMI-Corn. This is equivalent to 0.063 Ihs. imal.ethapyr
|
||
and U.S Ibs. atral.inc active ingrcdient per acrc.
|
||
NOTE: Only one application of CONTOUR herhicide may be made during the growing season.
|
||
Where there are statellocal requirements regarding atrazine use (including lower maximum rates and/or higher
|
||
set-hacks) which are different from the label, the more restrictive/protective requirements apply.
|
||
CONTOUR HERBICIDE USE AREA
|

(Not for \L~e in California or New York)
|
||
DO NOT apply CONTOUR to IMI-Corn in North Dakota and in Minnesota north of state highway 210.
|
||
APPLlCA TION INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
POSTEMERGENCE
|
||
CONTOUR is effective in controlling weeds in conservation tillage as well as i conventic,:tl production
|
||
systems. Apply CONTOUR herbicide a~ a poslemergencc treatment to IMI-Com when crop and weed~ arc
|
||
actively growing. Apply CONTOUR before weed~ exceed a height of 3 inches, unless otherwise indicated
|
||
and before corn rcaches 12 inches in height. Delay application until the majority of the wee(i~ are at the
|
||
recomm~ndcd growth stage. More restrictive crop growth stage limitations of t~nk-mix partners must he
|
||
i()llowct1.
|
||
An adjuvant (either a surfactant or a crop oil concentrate) amI a liquid fertilizer must be added to the spray
|
||
solution for optimum weed control activity. Sec the A:)D1TIVE section uncler MIXIN() INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
for specific instructions.
|
||
For maximum weed control, cultivate 7-]() days r"llowing a postemergence CONTOUR application. '1l1is
|
||
timely cultivation will enhance residual weed c(,ntrol, especially under dry conditions.
|
||
If air temperatures reach or stay below 40°F for 10 or more hours, delay a CONTOUR application for 48
|
||
hours from the time temperatures increase abo oe 40°F. Unusually cool temperatures (40°F or less) reduce
|
||
photosynthesis and transpiration and thus reduce the uptake and translocation (and effcctiveness) of
|
||
CONTOUR in wceds.
|
||
CONTOUj{ herhicide should be applied a minimum of one hour before rainfall or overhea(\ irrigation.
|
||
SOIL APPLICATIONS
|
||
CONTOUR can he applied as an early preplant, preplant incorporated, or precmcrgence treatment in IMI

PREPLANT INCORPORATED APPLICATIONS
|
||
CONTOUR may be applied following land preparation and should be thoroughly Incorporated to a depth of
|
||
I tll 2 inches. Application may be made up to 45 days prior to planting. Mechanical incorporation can be
|
||
achieved by one of the following:
|
||
(a) Disk harrow set to Cllt 3 to 4 inches deep and operated at 4 to 6 mph with the second
|
||
pass at an angle to the first.
|
||
(b) VJ'O-driven equipment (tillers, cultivators, hoes) set to cut 2 to 3 inches deep and
|
||
operated one time at 4 mph or less.
|
||
(c) Rolling cultivator set to cut 'J, to 4 inches deep and operated two times at 6 to 8 mph
|
||
with the second pass at an angle to the first. Use only on coarse textured SOils.
|
||
«(I) Held cultivator with :I or 4 rows of sweeps (Do not use chisel points), spaced at
|
||
intervals of 7 inches or less and staggered so that no soil is left untumcd, set to cut 3
|
||
inches deep, and ope.rated two tiIlles at more than 5 mph with the seccln(i pass at an
|
||
angle to the Ilrst.

|
||
PREEMERGENCE (SURFACE APPLICATIONS)
|
||
CONTOUR offers IlcxitJility in that it can be utilized in all production tillage systems. It can be applied prior
|
||
to planting or at planting in conventional, reduced tillage or no-till pffxiuction systems.
|
||
Adequate soil moisture is required for optimum activity. I'm surface applications, rainfall or overhead
|
||
irrigatiolJ is necessary tn move CONTOUR into the weed germination zone. The amount of rainfall or
|
||
in'igation required 1()lIowing applicatIOn depends on existing soil IIIoisture, soil texture aTHI organic matter
|
||
content. Sufficient water to llIoisten the soil to a depth PI' 2 inches is normally adequate. If adequate moisture
|
||
is not .cccivcd within 7 (lays after a surface-applied treatment. then a cultivation is recommended to control
|
||
cscap\~d weeds.
|
||
11 9/9G
|
||
|
||
When adeljuate lIloisture is rcccived after dry conditions, CONTOUR will provide residual control of
|
||
susccptlhlc germinating weeds; activity on cstahlished weeds will depend on the weed species <lmlthe location
|
||
of its mot system in the soil.
|
||
PREPLANT
|
||
CONVENTIONAL TILLAGE:
|
||
Apply CONTOUR herbicide treatments up to 4S days before planting, during plantin,'~' or after planting, If
|
||
moisture is insufficient, a thorough shallow tillage (preferably with a rotary h1C) or cultivation is
|
||
recommended to improve weed contro\.
|
||
NO·TILL OR REDUCED TILLAGE:
|
||
Apply CONTOUR treaunents up to 4S days before planting, during pl?~ting, or after planting. To ensure
|
||
tho.ough coverage, use a minimum of 20 gallons ')f water per acre. Use higher gallonage for fields witll dense
|
||
vegetation or heavy crop residues.
|
||
NOTE: Adjust planters to ensure adequate seed coverage.
