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).

glyphosate acid equivalent (a.e.) and 0.062 pounds of dicamba per gallon.
|
||
GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS
|
||
• Touchdown 008 requires actively growing green plant tissue to function.
|
||
Application to drought-stressed weeds or weeds with little green foliage (i.e.
|
||
mowed, cut, or hailed on weeds); weeds covered with dust; weeds damaged by
|
||
insects or diseases may result in reduced weed control.
|
||
• Touchdown 008 does not provide soil residual control of weeds. Weeds
|
||
emerging after application will require retreatment.
|
||
|
||
-8-
|
||
• Heavy rainfall or irrigation shortly after application may require retreatmC'll~
|
||
• Tillage or mowing within 3 days following application may reduce weed cOlltrol.
|
||
• Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
|
||
• Do not spray if conditions of thermal inversion exist, or if wind direction alIC:
|
||
speed may cause spray to drift onto adjacent nontarget areas. Drift miniIT,;zation
|
||
is the responsibility of the applicator. Consult with local and State agnculilli"al
|
||
authorities for information regarding avoiding or minimizing spray drift
|
||
• It is recommended that the spray system be thoroughly cleaned with wilter Clnd a
|
||
commercial tank cleaner after each use.
|
||
• Spray solutions of Touchdown OU8 should be mixed, stored, and applied u,wlg
|
||
only plastic, plastic-lined steel, sti;linless steel, aluminum, or fiberglass
|
||
containers. Concentrate should not be stored in galvanized steel, carboll ":,,:el,
|
||
aluminum, or unlined steel containfJrs.
|
||
• There are no rotational crop restrictions following application of this product
|
||
• Damage may be caused by contact of Touchdown 008 to any vegetatio:. tu
|
||
which treatment is not intended.
|
||
• In crop areas, do not exceed a total of 6 Ibs. a.e. glyphosate (6 qts. TOUC;V:lwn
|
||
008) per acre per year. In noncrop areas, do not exceed a total of 8 Ills ;, (;
|
||
glyphosate (8 qts. Touchdown 008) per acre per year.
|
||
• Do not exceed 0.75 Ibs. a.e. glyphosate (0.75 qt. Touchdown 008) per dCI·. :)y air
|
||
unless otherwise specified on this label.
|
||
• For broadcast postemergence treatments, do not harvest or feed treated
|
||
vegetation for 8 weeks following application, unless otherwise specifie(~.
|
||
• The maximum use rates stated throughout this product's labeling apply ;:;115
|
||
product combined with the use of all other herbicides containing glypho:;st:. or
|
||
sulfosate as the total acid equivalent, whether applied as mixtures or seD,,, :l'ely.
|
||
Calculate the application rates and ensure that the total use of this and c'j'r
|
||
glyphosate or sulfosate containing products does not exceed maximum I" ··ate.

||
GL YPHOSATE RESISTANT WEED MANAGEMENT
|
||
Touchdown 008 is a mixture of glyphosate (Group 9 Herbicide) and dicamba iC;".,up 4
|
||
Herbicide). Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to glyphosate or ci::amba
|
||
may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The repeiltc,ci use
|
||
of herbicides with the same mode of action is known to lead under certain conc!:Uns to
|
||
a selection of resistant weeds. Certain agronomic practices reduce the Iikelil1CJcci :nat
|
||
resistant weed populations will develop and integrated strategies are known tn II.IlIage
|
||
such problem weeds.
|
||
Glyphosate and dicamba are the active ingredients in the herbicide Touchdown OJ8.
|
||
The primary mode of action of glyphosate involves inactivation of the target enzj:118 5-
|
||
enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS). This enzyme is involved i~ the
|
||
synthesis of several essential amino acids, that are the building blocks for protelllS
|
||
needed for plant growth and development. In susceptible weeds glyph os ate bill!"
|
||
tightly to EPSPS rendering the enzyme ilHlctive. With the inactivation of EPSP~' ,'le
|
||
plant is unable to produce certain essential amino acids resulting in plant death. VI'lthin
|
||
the USA specific biotypes of horseweed/marestail, Conyza canadensis and r:uic'
|
||
ryegrass, Lolium rigidum have become resistant to glyphosate.
|
||
The primary mode of action of dicamba involves deactivation of auxin-bindinQ p"'i,"ins
|
||
in the cytosol or plasma membrane, disrupting endogenous auxin function. -;'/,1:,
|
||
causes deregulation of RNA and protein synthesis progressing to plant death. \','1' Ilin
|
||
the USA a specific biotype of kochia, Kochia scoparia, has become resistant to
|
||
dicamba.
|
||
Following is a list of Best Weed Management practices to be considered in glypl';ate
|
||
based programs.
|
||
• Rotate glyphosate with herbicides with different modes of action.
|
||
• Rotate glyphosate tolerant Roundup Ready® (RRTM) crops with conventioIIC'''-0Ps
|
||
to reduce resistant volunteers.
|
||
• Use alternative burndown and/or residual herbicide chemistry for RR crops Ii to
|
||
require more than one application of glyphosate.
|
||
• Do not use more than two applications of a glyphosate based herbicide over . !'-vo
|
||
year period in RR corn and RR soybeans production. Up to three in crop
|
||
applications may be used in RR cotton per year if glyphosate application io ,,:·ted
|
||
with in-crop cUltivation.
|
||
• Use full labeled rates to minimize tolerant escapes and do not allow weeci ,i' 'es
|
||
to produce seeds or vegetative propagules.
|
||
• Monitor treated weed populations for loss of field efficacy.
|
||
• Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or mar,. .Jrer

RATES
|
||
Follow recommended rates for Touchdown 008 listed in the WEEDS CONTROLLED

|
||
APPLICATION PROCEDURES
|
||
TIMING
|
||
Touchdown 008 should be applied to actively growing emerged weeds. Annuall'.'eeds
|
||
of 6 inches or less in height are typically the easiest to control. Generally, mOI'f'
|
||
effective control of perennial weeds is achieved at the flowering or seedheacl st,~~;e.
|
||
Refer to the WEEDS CONTROLLED sections for specific application timing
|
||
When annual weeds have been mowed or grazed, wait for 3-4 inches of new wowth to
|
||
appear prior to application. When perennial weeds have been mowed or grazed ,lllow
|
||
new growth to reach recommended stage prior to application.
|
||
Visible effects on annual weeds occurs within 2-4 days after application; effects on
|
||
perennial weeds may take 7 days or longer. Extremely cool or cloudy weather' k)'lmving
|
||
treatment may slow activity.
|
||
APPLICATION EQUIPMENT AND TECHNIQUES
|
||
• Avoid drift. Applications should not be made in low level inversion conciitions,
|
||
when winds are gusty or under any other conditions which favor drift. Inver'sions
|
||
are characterized by stable air and increasing temperatures with height Cli,e,ve
|
||
the ground. The applicator may detect the presence of an inversion by pruducing
|
||
smoke and observing a smoke layer. Drift may cause damage to any ve(l!'tation
|
||
contacted to which treatment is not intended.
|
||
• Drift control additives may be used with Touchdown 008. Read and ful:Clv., the
|
||
manufacturer's directions for use.
|
||
• All equipment must be properly maintained and washed to remove produc:
|
||
residues after use.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT INFORMATION
|
||
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. Ii Ie
|
||
interaction of many equipment- and weather-related factors determine the potentia: for
|
||
spray drift, The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all the""
|
||
factors when making decisions.
|
||
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-targe':: rift
|
||
movement from aerial applications to agricultural field crops. These requirement CIO
|
||
not apply to forestry applications, public health uses or to applications using d,y
|
||
formulations.
|
||
|
||
-19-
|
||
1. The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the
|
||
length of the wingspan or rotor.
|
||
2. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and never be
|
||
pointed downwards more than 45°.
|
||
Where states have more stringent regulations, they shall be observed.
|
||
The applicator should be familiar with and take into account the information covered in
|
||
the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information section below.
|
||
Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory Information
|
||
(This section is advisory in nature and does not supersede the mandatory label
|
||
" requirements.)
|
||
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 higher 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 Length
|
||
For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 3/4 of the
|
||
wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width.
|
||
Application Height
|
||
Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the
|
||
largest plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making Clpp!:':ation
|
||
at the lowest height that is safe reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation anc' wind.
|
||
Swath Adjustment
|
||
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced dowmvind.
|
||
Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must complcnsate
|
||
for this displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Swath CldJlIstmflnt
|
||
distance should increase, with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller clIC:'S,
|
||
etc.).
|
||
Wind
|
||
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2-10 mph. However, many factors,
|
||
including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed.
|
||
Application should be avoided below 2 mph due to variable wind direction and 11I,)h
|
||
inversion potential. Note: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every ,lpplic:Cltor
|
||
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 :arger
|
||
droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe whf-,n
|
||
conditions are both hot and dry.
|
||
Temperature Inversions
|
||
Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion because drift pote:::i,,1 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. Temperatlll'e
|
||
inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are coillmon
|
||
on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the·,un
|
||
sets and often continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ~F'lInd
|
||
fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the mo'iW 'fl'lt of
|
||
smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that laym: : nd
|
||
moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicate,; ill;
|
||
|
||
-21-
|
||
inversion, while smoke that move upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical
|
||
air mixing.
|
||
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 av.'"y from
|
||
the sensitive areas).
|
||
BROADCAST APPLICATIONS
|
||
Ground: Applications should be made in 3-40 gallons of water per acre.
|
||
When foliage is dense, spray volume should be increased to ensure coverage of the
|
||
target weeds. Flat-fan nozzles will resuH in the most effective application of Touchdown
|
||
ooe Spray boom and nozzle heights must be adjusted to provide coverage of ',lrget
|
||
weed. Flood nozzles may result in reduced weed control due to inadequate coverage.
|
||
Air: Applications should be made in 3-15 gallons of water per acre.
|
||
Spray should be released at the lowest height consistent with effective weed control and
|
||
flight safety. Applications more than 10 feet above the canopy should be avoicl"d.
|
||
Use the largest droplet size consistent with good weed control. Formation of veil' small
|
||
droplets may be minimized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzle~ ,1way
|
||
from the air stream as much as possible, and by avoiding inappropriate spray boom
|
||
pressure. Solid stream or low shear nozzles may be utilized to reduce small clro:)let
|
||
formation. These nozzles direct the fluid parallel to the existing airflow to redu=e shear
|
||
effects. Other techniques may include reducing the fan angle of flat fan nozzle" if used,
|
||
or reducing the deflector plate angle if deflector type nozzles are used. Ensure tile
|
||
spray is released at an appropriate distance below the airfoil.
|
||
For best results, each specific aerial application vehicle used should be quantiflilbly
|
||
pattern tested for aerial application of Touchdown 008 herbicide initially and ever\" year
|
||
thereafter. To minimize drift, it is suggested aerial application equipment procluce the
|
||
following minimum spray deposition characteristics:
|
||
Volume Median Diameter (VMD)
|
||
Volume Diameter (VD) {O.g}
|
||
> 400 microns
|
||
> 200 microns
|
||
|
||
-22-
|
||
Prolonged exposure of Touchdown OOB to uncoated steel surfaces may result in
|
||
corrosion and possible failure of the part. The maintenance of an organic coating
|
||
(paint) which meets aerospace specification MIL-C-3B413 may prevent corrosion. To
|
||
prevent corrosion of exposed parts, thoroughly wash aircraft after each day of spraying
|
||
to remove residues of Touchdown OOB accumulated during spraying or from spills.
|
||
Landing gear are most susceptible.
|
||
SPOT TREATMENTS
|
||
For annual weeds less than 6 inches, use a 0.3-0.5% v/v solution. For annual weeds
|
||
over 6 inches, use a 0.5-1% v/v solution. Use a 0.75-1.5% v/v solution for most
|
||
perennials (see Table 3 for specific rates and timing). When using motorized spot spray
|
||
equipment (rider bar), use a 2.25% v/v solution. See Spot Spray Dilution Table below
|
||
for rates of Touchdown OOB/volume of finished spray solution. Spray the solution on
|
||
actively growing weeds until uniformly wet but not to the point of runoff. Retreat 14-21
|
||
days later if regrowth occurs.

|
||
Apply to turf or forage grass areas grown for seed production. Applications MUST be
|
||
made prior to the emergence of the crop to avoid crop injury. For maximum control of
|
||
existing vegetation, delay planting to determine if any regrowth from escaped
|
||
underground plant parts occurs. Where repeat treatments are necessary, sufficient
|
||
regrowth must be attained prior to application. For warm-season grasses, such as
|
||
bermudagrass, summer or fall applications provide best control.
|
||
Follow directions listed in the APPLICATION DIRECTIONS, SPRAY ADDITIVES, and

|
||
when applications are made too early. Delay harvest until at least 30 days after
|
||
treatment. Do not apply a preharvest treatment on sorghum grown for seed as a
|
||
reduction in germination or vigor may occur.
