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.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
|
||
This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic
|
||
organisms in water adjacent to treated areas.
|
||
This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on blooming crops or weeds.
|
||
Do not apply this product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds if bees are visiting the
|
||
treatment area. Protect pollinating insects by following label directions intended to minimize drift and
|
||
to reduce risk to these organisms. Before beginning treatment, notify all registered apiarists in or near
|
||
the treatment area of the date and approximate time of treatment.
|
||
Reporting Ecological Incidents: To report ecological incidents, including mortality, injury, or harm to
|
||
plants and animals, call 1-800-331-3148.
|
||
This product may contaminate water through drift of spray in wind. This product has a high potential for
|
||
runoff after application. Use care when applying in or to an area which is adjacent to any body of water,
|
||
and do not apply when weather conditions favor drift from target area. Poorly draining soils and soils
|
||
with shallow water tables are more prone to produce runoff that contains this product. A level, well
|
||
maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water
|
||
features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential for contamination of water from
|
||
rainfall-runoff.
|
||

• All ULV aerial formulations other than those intended for use as a Wide Area Mosquito Adulticide
|
||
must be packaged in closed mixing and loading systems.
|
||
• Do not use this product for any uses other than those specified on this label.
|
||
• Undiluted spray droplets of Fyfanon ULV AG will permanently damage automobile paint. Cars should
|
||
not be sprayed. If accidental exposure does occur, the car should be washed immediately.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Pollinator Protection:
|
||
Managed pollinator protection plans are developed by states/tribes to promote communication
|
||
between growers, landowners, farmers, beekeepers, pesticide users, and other pest management
|
||
professionals to reduce exposure of bees to pesticides. If available, visit state plans for additional
|
||
information on how to protect pollinators.
|
||
Pollinator Best Management Practices (Agricultural Uses):
|
||
Following best management practices can help reduce risk to terrestrial pollinators. Examples of best
|
||
management practices include applying pesticides in the evening and at night when pollinators are not
|
||
foraging and checking to confirm hive locations before spraying. For additional resources on pollinator
|
||
best management practices,
|
||
visit https://www.epa.gov/pollinator-protection/find-best-management-practices-protect-pollinators.
|
||
Pollinator Best Management Practices (Non-Agricultural Uses):
|
||
Following best management practices can help reduce risk to terrestrial pollinators. Examples of best
|
||
management practices include applying pesticides in the evening and at night when pollinators are not
|
||
foraging and avoiding applications to flowering plants. For additional resources on pollinator best
|
||
management practices,

|
||
|
||
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
For resistance management, Fyfanon ULV AG contains a Group 1B insecticide. Any insect population
|
||
may contain individuals naturally resistant to Fyfanon ULV AG and other Group 1B
|
||
insecticides/acaricides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of
|
||
insecticides/acaricides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management
|
||
strategies should be followed.
|
||
|
||
To delay insecticide/acaricide resistance, take the following steps:
|
||
• Rotate the use of Fyfanon ULV AG or other Group 1B insecticides/acaricides within a growing season,
|
||
or among growing seasons, with different groups that control the same pests.
|
||
• Use tank mixtures with insecticides/acaricides from a different group that are equally effective on
|
||
the target pest when such use is permitted. Do not rely on the same mixture repeatedly for the same
|
||
pest population. Consider any known cross-resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the
|
||
individual components of a mixture. In addition, consider the following recommendations provided by
|
||
the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC):
|
||
o Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly effective and be applied at the
|
||
rates at which they are individually registered for use against the target species.
|
||
o Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action classification are not
|
||
recommended for insect resistance management.
|
||
o When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues between the individual
|
||
components for the targeted pest(s).
|
||
o Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one or both active ingredients,
|
||
but they may still provide pest management benefits.
|
||
o The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are greatest if the two
|
||
components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mixtures of insecticides with
|
||
unequal periods of residual insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance management benefit
|
||
only for the period where both insecticides are active.
|
||
|
||
• Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide/acaricides use that includes scouting,
|
||
uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop rotation, record keeping, and which considers
|
||
cultural, biological and other chemical control practices.
|
||
• Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of survival suggests the
|
||
presence of resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified pest control advisor.
|
||
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any additional pesticide
|
||
resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest problems in your
|
||
area.

MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
ULV Ground Boom Applications:
|
||
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
|
||
• Applicators must select nozzle and pressure that deliver medium or coarser droplets in accordance
|
||
with American Society of Agricultural & Biological Engineers Standard 572 (ASABE S572).
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 mph at the application site.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
ULV Aerial Applications:
|
||
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a
|
||
greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
|
||
• Applicators must select nozzle and pressure that deliver fine or coarser droplets in accordance with
|
||
American Society of Agricultural & Biological Engineers Standard (ASABE S641).
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the windspeed is greater than
|
||
10 mph, the boom length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less
|
||
of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan
|
||
for fixed-wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters.
|
||
• Applicators must use a full swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Additional Spray Drift Requirements

|
||
Do not apply within 50 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to, lakes, reservoirs, rivers,
|
||
streams, wetlands, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish ponds). This 50-foot buffer is in addition to the
|
||
full swath displacement upwind that applicators must use at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
|
||
Buffer Zones for Aerial ULV Application:
|
||
Do not apply within 100 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to, lakes, reservoirs, rivers,
|
||
streams, wetlands, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish ponds). This 100-foot buffer is in addition to
|
||
the full swath displacement upwind that applicators must use at the downwind edge of the field.
|
||
Do not make aerial or ground applications into areas of temperature inversions. Inversions are
|
||
|
||
characterized by stable air and increasing temperatures with increasing distance above the ground. Mist
|
||
or fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas. Where permissible by local regulations,
|
||
the applicator may detect the presence of an inversion by producing smoke and observing a smoke layer
|
||
near the ground surface. In conditions of low humidity and high temperatures, applicators should use a
|
||
coarser droplet size.
|
||
Agricultural Uses
|
||
Fyfanon ULV AG is used undiluted in any specially designed aircraft or ground equipment that has been
|
||
adapted and calibrated for ultra low volume spraying. Apply only when weather conditions are
|
||
favorable. Wind and rising air currents may cause undesirable spray drift and reduce insect control.

PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS FOR APPLICATION TO COTTON TO CONTROL BOLL WEEVIL
|
||
Treatment supervisors and applicators must be aware of all sensitive areas near cotton fields, including:
|
||
schools, hospitals, nursing homes, churches, occupied dwellings, parks, recreation areas, bodies of
|
||
water, and potential habitat for threatened and endangered species.
|
||
For aerial applications, spray equipment must be adjusted so that the volume median diameter is 100
|
||
microns (Dv 0.5 = 100um) or greater. The effects of flight speed, nozzle angle and type, and pump
|
||
pressure on the droplet size spectrum must be considered.
|
||
Spray should be released at the lowest height consistent with pest control and flight safety.
|
||
Global positioning systems (GPS) should be used to guide pilots and to monitor each application.
|
||
Ground equipment should utilize a controlled air flow to facilitate particle size and spray deposition, and
|
||
should be used at a vehicle speed of 4 to 10 mph. Spray equipment must be adjusted so that the volume
|
||
median diameter is 100 microns (Dv 0.5 = 100um) or greater.
|
||
Ground equipment should be used to treat field edges when possible, covering areas that cannot be
|
||
treated effectively with aircraft because of obstructions which may affect applicator safety, or where
|
||
there is boll weevil over-wintering habitat adjacent to the treatment area, or if there are adjacent
|
||
sensitive areas.
|
||
Treatments should be applied when winds are calm or moving away from adjacent sensitive areas.
|
||
When applications are made with a cross-wind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator
|
||
must compensate for his displacement at the downwind edge of the application area by adjusting the
|
||
path of the aircraft upwind.
|
||
Do not make aerial or ground applications into temperature inversions. Inversions are characterized by
|
||
stable air and increasing temperatures with height above the ground. Mist or fog may indicate the
|
||
presence of an inversion in humid areas. The applicator may detect the presence of an inversion by
|
||
producing smoke and observing a smoke layer near the ground surface.
|
||
Applications will not be made when people are in or near infested cotton fields or, to the degree
|
||
possible, when people are present in or near adjacent sensitive areas.
|
||
Application will not be made when rainfall is imminent.
|
||
FMC does not recommend that application be made to wet foliage.
|
||
Before beginning treatment, program personnel shall notify all registered apiarists in or near the
|
||
treatment area of the date and approximate time of treatment.
