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).

Product Information
|
||
Confirm® 2F insecticide mimics the action of the natural insect hormone 20 -hydroxyecdysone, the
|
||
physiological inducer of the molting and metamorphosis pro cess in insects. Confirm 2F is highly active
|
||
against most lepidopterous larvae while having practically no activity at typical use rates against other
|
||
orders of insects. Confirm 2F controls lepidopterous larvae through a novel mode of action by the
|
||
induction o f a premature lethal molt which initiates within hours of ingestion of treated crop surfaces.
|
||
Contact activity has also been observed in some insects. Actual death of the larvae will take several days
|
||
to occur, although feeding by the insects generally ceases within 24 hours of ingestion.
|
||
|
||
The safety of Confirm 2F has not been determined on all plants and crops. Before treating large numbers
|
||
of plants, test Confirm 2F , or tank mixes with Confirm 2F and other pesticides or fertilizers , at labeled
|
||
rates on a small section of plants and observe for symptoms of sensitivity prior to treating an entire crop.
|
||
|
||
Use Rate Determination
|
||
Carefully read, understand and follow label use rates, recommendations and restrictions. Apply the
|
||
amount specifi ed in the c rop-specific tables listed in this label with properly calibrated aerial or ground
|
||
spray equipment.
|
||
|
||
The low rates may be used for light infestatio ns of the target lepidopterous species and the higher rates
|
||
for moderate to heavy infestations. C onfirm 2F m ay be applied in either dilute or concentrate sprays so
|
||
long as the application equipment is calibrated and adjusted to deliver thorough, uniform c overage. Use
|
||
the specified amount of Confirm 2F per acre regardless of spray volume used. Prepar e only the amount
|
||
of spray solution required to treat the measured acreage.
|
||
|
||
Mixing and Compatibility
|
||
Fill the spray tank one-third to one-half full of clean water and slowly pour Confirm 2F into the spray tank.
|
||
Maintain agitation in the spray tank during mixing, loading and application. Triple rinse empty container
|
||
and add rinsate to spray tank.
|
||
|
||
Confirm 2F is believed to be compatible w ith most commonly used agricultural fungicides, insecticides,
|
||
growth regulators, foliar fertilizers and spray adjuvants . If in do ubt, mix proportional amounts of all spray

ingredients in a test vessel. Shake the mixture vigorously and allow it to stand f or fifteen minutes. Rapid
|
||
precipitation of the ingredients and failure to re -suspend when shaken indicates that the mi xture is
|

incompatible and should not be applied. It is the pesticide user's responsibility to ensure that all products
|
||
are registered for the intended use. R ead and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and

directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive
|
||
directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
|
||
Application Timing
|
||
The activity of Confirm 2F is expressed p rimarily through ingestion by the target larvae. Consequently,
|
||
the timing of application is dependent upon the feeding behavior of the target pes t. For int ernal feeding
|
||
larvae, application must be made prior to the time that surface feeding occurs. For foliar or surface
|
||
feeding larvae, application made while active feeding is occurring will be effective.
|
||
|
||
Reapplication may be required to protect new flushes of foliage or rapidly expanding fruit. The
|
||
reapplication interval will vary depending upon how rapidly the crop is growing and the generation time of
|
||
the target pest. While Confirm 2F is essentially equally effective against all instars, it i s generally good
|
||
practice to make applications to early instars to avoid t he heavy damage that can be inflicted by later
|
||
instar larvae.
|
||
|
||
For best results, begin applications when first signs of feeding damage or when threshold levels of moths,
|
||
eggs or larv ae occur. Consult the Cooperative Extension Service, or other qualified professional
|
||
authorities, to determine the appropriate threshold for application in your area.
|
||
|
||
Application Instructions
|
||
Because Confirm 2F must be ingested by the larvae, application must be in a manner that assures
|
||
uniform and thorou gh coverage. Higher water volume and increased spray pres sure generally provide
|
||
better coverage. Operating an air -blast sprayer at ground speeds greater than 2 mph and making
|
||
applications in an alternate row middle pattern in tree crops and vines may res ult in less than satisfactory
|
||
coverage and poor performanc e, particularly in conditions of high pest infestation levels, extremely large
|
||
trees and/or dense foliage. Avoid application under conditions when uniform coverage cannot be assured
|
||
or when excessi ve spray drift may occur. A minimum of six hours drying t ime is required between the
|
||
completion of application and the onset of precipitation to ensure optimum performance.
|
||
|
||
Use Restriction for Chemigation: Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system except
|
||
as specified for use on cranberries and ornamentals.
|
||
|
||
Spray Adjuvants: The addition of agricultural adjuvants to Confirm 2F sprays will improve initial spray
|
||
deposits, redistribution and weatherability.
|
||
|
||
Place Confirm 2F into suspe nsion prior to adding an adjuvant to the spray mixture. R ead and carefully
|
||
observe the precautionary statements and all other information appearing on all product labels prior to
|
||
spray preparation.
|
||
|
||
Pesticide Resistance Management
|
||
For resistance management, Confirm 2F contains a Group 18 insecticide. Any i nsect population may
|
||
contain individuals naturally resistant to Confi rm 2F and other Group 18 insecticides. The resistant
|
||
individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are u sed 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 Confirm 2F or other Group 18 insecticides within a growing season, or among
|
||
growing seasons, with different groups that control the same pests.
|
||
• Use tank mixtures with insecticides 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):
|
||
|
||

|
||
Page 8 of 33
|
||
|
||
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 hav ing the same IRAC mode of action clas sification 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 res istance is already d eveloping to one or both active
|
||
ingredients, but they may still provide pest management benefits.
|
||
o The insect resistance m anagement benefits of an insecticide mixture are greatest i f the
|
||
two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mi xtures of
|
||
insecticides with unequal periods of residual insecticide act ivity may offer an insect
|
||
resistance management benefit only for the period where both insecticides are active.
|
||
|
||
• Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticides use that in cludes scouting, uses
|
||
historical information related to pesticide use, crop rotation, record keeping, and which consi ders
|
||
cultural, biological and other chemical control practices.
|
||
• Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of s urvival 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 r ecommendations for the specific site and pest problems in
|
||
your area.

||

Chemigation Applic ation: For use only in solid- set sprinkler systems designed specifically for

prevention devices. See the Mixing section of this labeling for specific mixing and dilution instructions.
|
||
Confirm 2F should be applied in dedicated chemigation cycles only, not as a pa rt of a regular irrigation
|
||
cycle. Do not exceed 900 gallons of water per acre application volume. Minimum volume should be used
|
||
for flushout t o avoid diluting or rinsing off product. Washout time should not exceed six (6) minutes.
|
||
Sprinkler heads shoul d be set in a spacing not exceeding 50 feet by 60 feet and adjusted to provide

100% overlap. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pes ticide residues can result from non- uniform
|
||
distribution of treated water.
|
||
|
||
Use Restrictions for Applications through Chemigation Systems
|
||
• Do not conn ect an irrigation system used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the
|
||
pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
|
||
• Chemigation systems connected to pu blic water systems must contain a functional red uced-pressure
|
||
zone (RPZ), back flow preventer or the functional equivalent in the water supply l ine upstream from the
|
||
point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should
|
||
be discharged into a reservoir t ank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical
|
||
break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of
|
||
at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
|
||
• Systems not connected to a public water supply must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief
|
||
valve, and low -pressure drain appropriately located in the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source
|
||
contamination from back flow.
|
||
• The pest icide injectio n pipeline must contai n a functional, automatic, quick -closing check valve to
|
||
prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
|
||
• The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed solenoid -operated valve
|
||
located on the intake side of the inj ection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid
|
||
from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or
|
||
manually shut down.
|
||
• The system must contain f unctional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection
|
||
pump when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there i s no water pump, when the water
|
||
pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
|
||
• The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch that will stop the water pump
|
||
motor when the water pressure decr eases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely
|
||
affected.
|
||
• Systems must use a positive displacement, metering injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump), effectively
|
||
designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted
|
||
with a system interlock.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
|
||
• If you have questions about calibr ation, you should contact State Extension Service specialists,
|
||
equipment manufacturers or other experts.

ORNAMENTALS
|
||
When used as recommended, Confirm 2F will control the designated pests on trees, shrubs, foliage
|
||
plants and fl owers grown in commercial nurseries and greenhouses, in Christmas tree farms, in outdoor
|
||
landscape areas such as parks, recreational areas, institutional grounds, residential property, etc., and i n
|
||
interior plantscapes.
|
||
|
||
When applied as directed, Confirm 2F has shown excellent tolerance on a wi de r ange of ornamental
|
||
plants. It is impossible, however, to evaluate this product on all ornamentals or under all possible growing
|
||
conditions. The user s hould exercise reasonable judgment and caution with this product. Until familiar
|
||
with results under user growing conditions, a limited number of plants should be treated.
|
||
|
||
Pesticide Resistance Management for Ornamental Use Only:
|
||
Resistance to pesticides has been shown to develop when a pesticide is used continuously against many
|
||
generations of a target pest. Nippon Soda Co., Ltd. encourages the periodic interruption of continuous
|
||
use by utilization of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices or by the pe riodic use of a product with
|
||
an alternative mode of action to delay or prevent development of resis tance. Since the development of
|
||
resistance cannot be predicted, we suggest you consult local or Stat e Extension Service personnel for
|
||
resistance management strategies appropriate to your crop locality and production practices. Do not use
|
||
this product to contr ol more t han three consecutive generations of pests in a cropping area (field)
|
||
regardless of the crop rotation on that field. If you are unsure of the number of generations treated, do
|
||
not use this product more than four times within any 80- day interval. If Confirm 2F has been applied four
|
||
times in 80 days or less, allow at least 40 days to pass before making additional applications
|
||
|
||
Application

the size of the tree or density of the foliage prohibits thorough, uniform coverage of the entire tree canopy.
|
||
|
||
Chemigation Application Directions for Use for Ornamentals Only:
|
||
|
||
Sprinkler Irrigation: For use only in solid- set spr inkler systems designed specifically for
|
||
chemigation.
|
||
Apply through a properly c alibrated chemigation system that has the appropriate back flow prevention
|
||
devices. This product should be applied in dedicated chemigation cycles only, not as part of a regul ar
|
||
irrigation cycle. Do not exceed 1200 gallons of water per acre application v olume. Mi nimum volum e
|
||
should be used for flush out to avoid diluting or rinsing off product. Washout time should not exceed the
|
||
time needed to cl ear the lines. Sprinkler hea ds should be s et in a spacing not exceeding 50 feet by 60
|
||
feet and adjusted to provide 100% overlap.
|
||
|
||
Use Restrictions for Applications Through Chemigation Systems:
|
||
• Apply only through solid-set sprinkler systems. Do not apply product through any other type of irrigation
|
||
system.
|
||
• Crop injury, lack of effectiveness or illegal pesticide residues c an result from non-uniform distribution of
|
||
treated water.
|
||
• If you h ave questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Ser vice specialists or
|
||
equipment manufacturers.
|
||
• Do not connect an irrigation system used for pesticide applicati on to a public water system unless the
|
||
pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
|
||
• A person knowledgeable of t he chemigation system and res ponsible for i ts operation, or under the
|
||
supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments
|
||
should the need arise.
|
||
|
||
When Applying via Sprinkler Chemigation:
|
||
• The system must contain a functional check valve, vac uum r elief val ve, and low -pressure drain
|
||
appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from back flow.
|
||
• The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick -closing check valve to
|
||
prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
|
||
• The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve
|
||
located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid
|
||
from being wit hdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatical ly or
|
||
manually shut down.
|
||
• The system must contain functional inter locking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection
|
||
pump when the water pump motor stops.
|
||
• The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch that will stop the water pump
|
||
motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely
|
||
affected.
|
||
• Systems must use a metering pump, such as a p ositive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm
|
||
pump) effectively desi gned and c onstructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and
|
||
capable of being fitted with a system interlock.

|
||
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
|
||
|
||
When the Chemigation System is Connected to a Public Water System:
|
||
• Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for human
|
||
consumption if such system that has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of
|
||
at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.
|
||
• Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional reduced- pressure
|
||
zone (RPZ), backflow preventer or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the
|
||
point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should
|
||
be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical
|
||
break (air gap) between the outlet end of the pipe fill and the top or overflow ri m of the reservoir tank of
|
||
at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
|
||
• The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automat ic, quick -closing check valve to
|
||
prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
|
||
• Systems not connec ted to a public water supply must contain a functional check valve, vacuum r elief
|
||
valve, and low -pressure drain appropriately located in the irrigation pipeline to prevent water sou rce
|
||
contamination from back flow.
|
||
• The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed solenoid -operated valve
|
||
located on the int ake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock t o prevent fluid
|
||
from being wi thdrawn from t he supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or
|
||
manually shut down.
|
||
|
||
Spray Adjuvants: A spray adjuvant should be used wit h Confirm 2F applications. The adjuvant will
|
||
improve initial spray deposits, redistribution and weathera bility of Confirm 2F. The adjuvant chosen
|
||
should be approved for use on the ornament als being t reated. Since some adjuvants can be phytotoxic
|
||
to certain ornamental plants, the user should have prior experience with the adjuvant before combining it
|
||
with Confirm 2F.

Performance of Confirm 2F agains t pests not listed on this label cannot be warranted nor can crop
|
||
tolerance of Confirm 2F in all types and varieties of tree nuts be assured. If unsure, the user is advised to
|
||
treat a few trees to observe for symptoms before treating large blocks of trees . Generally, optimum
|
||
performance against lepidopterous pests (worms) is achieved when Confirm 2F is applied at the ini tiation
|
||
of egg hatch. Reapplication in 10 to 20 days may be required if the plant part(s) to be protected from
|
||
insect damage is rapidly growing or expanding or if pest infestations are heavy or extended.

Trees1, Forests2, and Shrubs3
|
||
|
||
1Trees include: Christmas Trees, nurseries and plantations, conifer seed orchards, ornamental and
|
||
shade trees.
|
||
|
||
2Forests include: commercial, private and public forestland, conifer release sites, shelterbelts and
|
||
windbreaks, and forest plantings.
|
||
|
||
3Shrubs include: woody shrubs and vines.
|
||
|
||
Because Confirm 2F must be ingested in order to be effective, it is essential that coverage is thorough
|
||
and uniform. Higher carrier volumes and higher use rates are recommended for very large trees or dense
|
||
stands and for heavy target pest infestations.
|
||
|
||
Ground Application: Hydraulic ground sprayers should be calibrated to deliver a minimum of 50 gallons
|
||
per acre. For mist blowers or air blast sprayers, use a minimum of 10 gallons per acre.
|
||
|
||
Aerial Application: Make applications in a minimum of 1 gall on per acre. Higher carrier volumes are
|
||
recommended when environmental conditions are less than ideal for aerial applications.
