This is always my problem, too. Some of us have orchards. Others, like 
me, just a variety of fruit trees in the backyard. When I started, I did 
a great deal of research online about pesticides. But then I discovered 
that I couldn't find the vast majority of them.

I might add that having a variety of fruit trees and bushes in one 
location - no two the same variety, in fact - means that it's even 
harder, because I can't find anything that's rated for everything (never 
mind that they're usually in different stages of bloom, etc.). This is a 
big problem for backyard growers, but not as much for people with 
orchards, I imagine.
