There used to be an organically approved Bt (can't think of the name right
now), but it the approval was later rescinded, according to a rep from the
company that made it. I can't speak for anything for conventional
production. What are you looking to control? Entrust will control CO potato
beetle. One treatment of Entrust, followed with a buckwheat companion that
attracted beneficial predators, kept the CPB under control in my eggplant
last year. I plan to get buckwheat in earlier this year, to see if we can
get along without the Entrust.

Johnny's used to have the potato BT, but I don't see it this year.
Jeez, I didn't know that they've made a GMO "BT Potato" I'd like to
have a small bottle on hand for this season, just the same. ;-)

Also, good source for good neem?

Thanks -Allan in Shepherdstown, WV
