So as I one those people who do sell Saponyn (Helena) and did post about it 
please let me say >>> without advertising <<<<<
go to 
http://www.composttea.ca

you will see our listing for Saponyn - it's show the 20% active ingredient
content
there is also has a link to the Helena site which has a PDF file of the
label. Also on the Helena site is more information including the claim that
Saponyn is National Organic Program Compliant. 

I followed Tom's link and was surprised to see only 111 items listed. Hmmmm
I thought there are 3 tabs at the bottom. I did search all three and did
not find Saponyn or Yucca but what I did find was on the crops tab, line 38
detergents - allowed. On the crops page only 99 items listed , on the
livestock page only 42 for a total of 252.
Boy I sure hope they have grouped alot of things together !
