Interesting that Champ WG has a 'Danger' signal word. Sounds real 'organic,' huh?

Subject: Apple-Crop: copper fungicides for organic apples?

Can anyone point me to a copper fungicide that is OMRI approved for
organic farmers AND that also has a US EPA label that allows repeated
applications to apples during summer.   I know that I should be able
to find this info on the OMRI web-site, but I found that site
extremely confusing when I tried it a year or two ago.
