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).

BASIC USE INFORMATION
|
||
SERENADE® OPTI is a broad spectrum, preventative product for the control or suppression of many important plant
|
||
diseases . Apply SERENADE OPTI as a foliar spray alone, in alternating spray programs or in tank mixes with other
|
||
registered crop protection products . Apply SERENADE OPTI as a soil drench alone or in tank mixes with other registered
|
||
crop protection products . When conditions are conducive to heavy disease pressure, use SERENADE OPTI in a rotational
|
||
program with other registered fungicides . Apply SERENADE OPTI with spray equipment commonly used for making
|
||
ground or aerial applications and sprinkler/irrigation systems commonly used for chemigation . Heavy rainfall or irrigation
|
||
shortly after application may require retreatment . SERENADE OPTI can be used for organic production .

|
||
USE RATE DETERMINATION
|
||
Carefully read and follow all label directions, use rates and restrictions . Application of SERENADE OPTI prior to or in the
|
||
early stages of disease development provides the best control or suppression of the targeted plant disease . Use the stated
|
||
maximum label rates and shorter spray intervals for conditions conducive to threatening or rapid disease development .
|
||
For proper application, determine the number of acres to be treated, the label use rate and select appropriate gallonage
|
||
to give good canopy penetration and coverage of plant parts to be protected . Prepare only the amount of spray solution
|
||
required to treat the measured acreage . Accurate spray equipment calibration is essential prior to use .
|
||
PREHARVEST INTERVAL
|
||
SERENADE OPTI can be applied up to and including the day of harvest .
|
||
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
GENERAL: Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator . The interaction of many
|
||
equipment and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift . The applicator and the grower/treatment
|
||
coordinator are responsible for considering all of these factors when making decisions . Where states have more stringent
|
||
regulations, they should be observed . Note: This section is advisory in nature and does not supersede the mandatory
|
||
label requirements .
|
||
GROUND: Be sure to maintain agitation during mixing and application to assure uniform product suspension . Thorough
|
||
coverage of all foliage is essential for effective disease control . SERENADE OPTI can be applied in commonly used ground
|
||
equipment, hose-end, pressurized, greenhouse and hand-held sprayers . To achieve good coverage, use proper spray
|
||
pressure, gallonage per acre, nozzles, nozzle spacing and ground speed . Consult spray nozzle and accessory catalogues
|
||
for specific information on proper equipment calibration .
|
||
AERIAL: This product can be applied by aerial application . Refer to the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information
|
||
section of this label for general directions and precautions . Use the application rate indicated for the appropriate crop in
|
||
sufficient water to achieve thorough coverage, typically between 3 – 20 gallons of water per acre depending upon the
|
||
crop . Three gallons of water per acre is the minimum .
|
||
CHEMIGATION: This product can be applied through sprinkler (center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll,
|
||
traveler, solid set, and hand move) or drip type irrigation systems . Refer to the Chemigation Directions for Use section of
|
||
this label for general directions and precautions . Use the application rate indicated for the appropriate crop as specified
|
||
in the Application Rate tables of this label .
|
||
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
MIXING: SERENADE OPTI must be diluted with water . Partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin agitation .
|
||
Add the specified amount of SERENADE OPTI to the tank . Finish filling the tank to the necessary volume to obtain the
|
||
proper spray concentration . It is critical that the spray solution be agitated during mixing and application to assure a
|
||
uniform suspension . Do not allow spray mixture to stand overnight or for prolonged periods . Maintain a spray solution
|
||
pH between 4 .5 and 8 .5 .
|
||
SERENADE OPTI may be tank-mixed with other registered pesticides to enhance plant disease control . This product
|
||
cannot be mixed with any product with a prohibition against such mixing . When tank-mixing SERENADE OPTI with other
|
||
registered pesticides, always read and follow all use directions, restrictions, and precautions of both SERENADE OPTI and
|
||
the tank-mix partner(s) . Use of the resulting tank mix must be in accordance with the more restrictive label limitations
|
||
and precautions . Do not exceed label dosage rates .
|
||
COMPATIBILITY: Do not combine SERENADE OPTI in the spray tank with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers if
|
||
there has been no previous experience or use of the combination to show it is physically compatible, effective and
|
||
non-injurious under your use conditions .
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
SERENADE OPTI is compatible with many commonly used pesticides, fertilizers, adjuvants and surfactants but
|
||
has not been fully evaluated with all of these . To ensure compatibility of tank-mix combinations, evaluate them
|
||
prior to use as follows: Using a suitable container, add proportional amounts of product to water . Add wettable
|
||
powders first, followed by water dispersible granules, then by liquid flowables and lastly, emulsifiable concentrates .
|
||
Mix thoroughly and let stand for at least five minutes . If the combination stays mixed or can be remixed, it is physically
|
||
compatible . Test the combination on a small portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response will
|
||
not occur as a result of application .
|
||
ADDITIVES: SERENADE OPTI is compatible with a wide range of additives . Since the product is primarily a
|
||
protectant, thorough coverage of all above-ground plant parts is required for effective product performance .
|
||
To improve plant surface coverage, add a nonphytotoxic adjuvant to spray tank .
|
||

AERIAL DRIFT REDUCTION ADVISORY INFORMATION
|
||
General: Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator . The interaction of many
|
||
equipment and weather-related factors determines the potential for spray drift . The applicator and the grower are
|
||
responsible for considering all these factors when making decisions . Where states have more stringent regulations, they
|
||
should be observed .
|
||
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE: The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets .
|
||
The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control . Applying
|
||
larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable
|
||
environmental conditions (see Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions) .
|
||
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE: Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray
|
||
volume . Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets . Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer’s
|
||
recommended pressures . For many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets . When high flow rates are
|
||
needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure . Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of
|
||
nozzles that provide uniform coverage . Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the
|
||
airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is the recommended practice . Significant deflection from
|
||
horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential . 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 . Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift .
|
||
BOOM WIDTH: For aerial applications, the boom width must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the rotary
|
||
blade . Use upwind swath displacement and apply only when wind speed is 3 – 10 mph as measured by an anemometer .
|
||
Use medium or coarser spray according to ASAE 572 definition for standard nozzles or VMD for spinning atomizer
|
||
nozzles . If application includes a no-spray zone, do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the ground
|
||
or the crop canopy .
|
||
APPLICATION HEIGHT: Do not make application at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the largest plants
|
||
unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety . Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces
|
||
exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind .
|
||
SWATH ADJUSTMENT: When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downward .
|
||
Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this displacement by adjusting
|
||
the path of the aircraft upwind . Swath adjustment distance should increase, with increasing drift potential (higher wind,
|
||
smaller drops, etc .) .
|
||
WIND: Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 3 - 10 mph . However, many factors, including droplet size and
|
||
equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed . Application should be avoided below 3 mph due to variable
|
||
wind direction and high inversion potential . NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns . Every applicator should be
|
||
familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray drift .
|
||
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY: When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce
|
||
larger droplets to compensate for evaporation . Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry .
|
||
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS: Do not apply during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high .
|
||
Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small, suspended droplets to remain in a concentrated
|
||
cloud . This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds common during inversions .
|
||
Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with
|
||
limited cloud cover and light to no wind . They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning .
|
||
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 .
|
||
|
||
9
|
||
SENSITIVE AREAS: The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e .g .
|
||
residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is minimal (e .g .
|
||
when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas) . Do not allow spray to drift from the application site and contact
|
||
people, structures people occupy at any time and the associated property, parks and recreation areas, non-target crops,
|
||
aquatic and wetland areas, woodlands, pastures, rangelands, or animals .
