Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
docker: production image + Gitea Actions for monthly refresh
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).

RECOMMENOAnONS FOR USE ON CORN (FIElD, SWEET, SILAGE AND POPCORN)
NOTE: SUTAZINE+ 6.25ME Is not recommended on com grown In ArIzona or In the ten
. SouthefI'I most CeIifornIa countIeI.
For all uses, cultivation Is recommended In addition to the SUTAZINE+ treatment In fields with
moderate to heavy infestations of wild cane, nutsedge, aandbur,
johnsongrass seedlings, rhizome bennudagrasa, Texas I*\ICUm or volunteer sorghum.
BrOMic •• Rat_ Per Acre: Conventional sprays and center pivot sprinklers.
For control 01 .vIUIII gr ..... and broIIdI • ., w •• da: Use 5.25 to 7 pints of SUTAZINE+ per
acre. Use the higher rate of SUTAZlNE+ on medium (medium fine textured-sHt loam, clay loam,
etc.) to fine (fine textured-day) solis and for sandbur and johnsongrass seedling control.
For control of nutaedge and Texaa panIcum (In addition to the broadieaf weeds and other
annual gr ..... lilted): Use 6.75 to 10 pints of SUTAZlNE+ per acre. Use the higher rotes of
SUTAZINE+ on medium (medium fine textured-silt loam, clay loam, etc.) soils, fine (fine
textured-day) soils and for heavy Infestations.
For partt.I control (auppr ... Ion) 01 WIld c.ne (Met for control of the broadIeaf weeds and
amual gr ..... lilted): When applied and Incorporated
Immedlltely before planting, SUTAZlNE+ 6.25ME at the rate of 10 pints per acre on a broadcast
besIs will reduce competition from wild cane. On oontInuoua com
a'''.I''38ge with high cane seed population, rotation to another crop Is recommended.
Suppression of wild cane may be improved If all the following practices are followed:
1. Fall or Spring Moldboard Plow.
2. Before application, the IOIIIhouId be wei worked with • disc and dry enough to permit
good soli mixing of the herbicide (Incorporation). All trash should be wor1<ed Into the 5011.
3. Delay application until soli warms to. oonstant 55 degrees or greater temperature. Plant
Immediately.
4. Incorporate thoroughly. Use recommended incorporation equipment and prooedures found
on this label.
5. Cultivate immediately If wild cane emerges. CultIvation should be shallower than the depth
used when incorporating the herbicide. .

For control of Jot.-.ongrl .. Mel all'ftlUd9-- (In MIdItIon to the broMI ... wMda and
ennu.I U ....... 1I.ted): Apply and dlsc-lncorporate SlITAZlNE+ 6.25MEJust before planting at
the rate of 6.75 to 10 pinta per acre. Use the higher rate of SlITAZINE+ 6.25ME on medium
(medium fine textured lilt loam, clay loam, etc.) soils, ftne (1Ine textured-day) aoIIa. for rhizome
johnsongrasa suppression and for heavy infestations . DIsc a MCond time at right angles to the
f .·st. Cultivate at least once. preferably twice.
Johnsongr ... : UsIng a program of plowing and disclng followed by SlITAZlNE+ 6.25ME will give
good control of seedlings and greatly reduce competition from plants coming from rIlizomes.
In some areas discIng 2 to 3 times spaced at 4 to 6 week Intervals during fall and winter can be
done. If this cannot be done, start with fall plowing followed by several discings In the spring
before planting. The discing cuts rIlizomea into smaD pieces and brings them to the surface. where
both !he weather ar j SlITAZINE+ win kill or weaken them.
Rhizome Bel'mudagr ... : The rhizomes and stolons of bermudagrass must be cut up thoroughly
so that four or less nodes remain on a strand. For control of bennudagrass. the disc must be set
to cut 6 inches deep.
For Suppr ... 1on of Broadleaf Signalgr ... : For early and mid season suppression. use 10
pints of SUTAZINE+ 6.25ME per acre. Cultivation or application Of post-4ltTl8l'gence herbicide
recommended for broadleaf slgnalgrass will aid in extending control to late season.
For Suppreaalon of Hemp Dogbane: For early and mid-season suppression, use 10 pints of
SUTAZINE+ 6.25ME per acre. Cultivation or application of a post-tKTlGl'gence herbicide
recommended for hemp dogbane may aid In extending control beyond mId-season.
Fal. Application: For use only In Minnesota. Northern Iowa (North of Interstate 80). Northeast
Nebraska (North of Interstate 80 and East of State HIghway 14), South Dakota (East of Missouri

PROCEDURE FOR TESTING tHE COMPATIBILITY OF SUTAZlNE+ 6.25ME WITH FLUID
FERTILIZERS.
The following procedure II auggested for determining wheUl8I' SUTAZINE+ 6.25ME may be
combined with a apecIfic tIuId fertilizer for spray tank application.
MATERIALS REQUIRED:
1. SUTAZlNE+ 6.25ME
2. Fluid fertilizer to be used.
3. Tank mix adjuvants for fluid fertilizer combinations: Compex*,
Sponto 168-0*, Unite- or equivalent. The adjuvant which provides the best compatibility
depends on the apecHic fertilizer involved.
*Compex. KaJo Laboratortes Inc., Kansas CIty, Missouri; Sponto 168-0, w.tco Chemical

4. Two one-quart, wldHTlOUth glass jars with lids.
5. Measuring spoons; a graduated pipette or cylinder wiD provide more accurate
measurement; 1 tablespoon equals 3 teaspoons, 1 teaspoon equals approximately 5
milliliters.
6. MeMuring cup, 8 oz. (237 mI).
PROCEDURE:
1. Pour a pint (473 ml) of the fluid fertilizer Into each of the quart tars.
2. Add adjuvant to one of the jars •. "Id mix (see nQXt rtlte tabla).
3. Add the SUTAZINE+ 6.25ME to both jars
4. Close both jars with lids end mix the contents bV UnIng the 1M upeIde down ten times.
5. Inspect the surface and body of the mbttur .. :

if a uniform mix cannot be made, the mixture should not be used. If either mixture remains uniform
for 30 minutes, the combination may be us-Jd. Should either mixture separate atter 30 minutes. but
readily remix uniformly with ten jar Inversions,
uniformly with ten Jar inversions, the mixture can be used if adequate agitation Is maintained In
the tank. If the mixture with adjuv.m Is satisfactory, but the one without adjuvant Is not, be sure
to use the adjuvant in the spray tank. Add the adjuvant at a rate of 3 pints per 100 gallons of
ftuid fertilizer; foaming can be minimized by using moderate agitation. If nondisperslble oil,
sludge or clumps of solids form in the, mixtures, the combInatio;. should not be used

SUTAZlNE+ • 25ME IMPREGNAT10N ON DRY BULK FERTlUZERS
CAUTION: SUTAZJNE+ 6.25ME alone or In combination with other herbicides must not be
Impregnated on ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate or sodium nitrate fertilizers.
Such mixtures may cause explosion and tire.
All IndMduaI state regulatlona relating to dry bulk fertilizer blending, r8£lstratlon, labeling and
application are the responsibility of the individual endIor company aelHng the SUTAZINE +/fertillzer
mixtures.
SUTAZINE+ 6.25ME may be Impregnated on many dry bulk fertilizers (1) and applied and
Incorporated Into the soil either In the Fa" before the ground freezes or before planting for the
control of many grassy and broadleaf weeds.
All SUTAZlNE+ 6.25ME label and supplementary literature Instructions and precautions regarding
rt'tes per acre, soli type and soil incorporation, application and other directions must be followed.
Test results have shown that SUTAZlNE+ 6.25ME on many dry bulk fertilizers gives weed
control equal to SUTAN+ 6.7-E or tank mixtures of SUTAN+ 6.7-E/ATRAZINE (8J1N or 4L)
applied as a spray in water or liquid fertilizer, or Impregnated on dry bulk fertilizer. However,
unHorm impregnation of the SUT AZlNE + on the dry fertilizer particles and uniform application
In the field are necessary to assure good results.
A minimum of 200 pounds and a maximum of 700 pounds of approved fertilizer Ingredients (1)
Impregnated with the appropriate amount of SUTAZJNE+ 6.25ME must be applied per acre.
For Impregnating the SUTAZlNE+ 6.25ME on dry fertilizers, use a cIoIed rotary-drum type
mixer equipped with suitable spraying equipment. 'The spray nozzles should be positioned
inside of the mixer to provide uniform spray coverage of the tumbling fef1izer. The
SUTAZJNE+ should be sprayed unHormIy onto the fertilizer using a fine spray pattern.
SUTAZINE+ Is a relatively viIOOUI material, particularly at low temperatures (2<A=). AJ. warmer
temper.tur. (45-8dlF) the vIacoeIty Is ~nIfIcan1Iy iower (see vIac:osIty data later In this
appendix).
The phyaIcaJ properties of fertilizers vary, partic:uIarIy In liquid abIorptIve eepacIty. When
absorptivity Is sufficient, simple spray impregnation of the fertilizer with SUTAZlNE+ provides a
satisfactory dry mixture.
If the abaorpt/va capacity Is not adequate, UN of a drying agent Is required to Ptcmcse dry.

For mixtures to be used In pneumatic ~ora, Mlcrocel E or Agsorb 16130 RVM·MS
granular·-;lay (Oil-Drl Corporation) II recommended for use as the drying agent.
The drying agent should be added separately and uniformly to the prepared pestlckle-fe. "..zer
mlxture,ln a quantity that Is sutIIcIent to provide a suitably free-t\owlng mixture. Generally, less than
2% Mlcrocel E or 5% Agsorb 16/30 RVM-MS by weight Is reqt*ed.
The amount of SUTAZlNE+ actually required In the manufacture of IndMdual fertilizer rr,bctures
should be determined carefully for each production operation (2). ThIs Is neceeslllY to ensure that
the amount of SUTAZlNE+ actJaIly contained In the mixtwe applied to the soli represents the
correct rates of use.
Bulk fertilizers Impregnated with SUTAZINE+ should be applied ImmediatelY. NOT STORED. All
bulk containers soo lid be tightly ooverfld while the products are being transported and applied
to reduce chance, of SUTAN loss via volatilization.
00 not combine SlITAZINE+ 6.25ME with aIngIe auper-phosphate «().20.()} or treble
superphosphate (~).
INCORPORAnoN OF IMPREGNATED FERT1UZERS
When application and incorporation are done In separate operations, SUTAZINE+ 6.25ME
Impregnated on dry fertilizer must be Incorporated on the same day .. applied. Application must
be made on a dry I0Il surface (at least 112 Inch deep) free from dew and IncidentDI moisture.
