Default aphid controls on edible crops

Hi Folks,

I have curly leaf on my plum tree and understand that it is almost always it
is a sign of aphid attack. Apparently, the plum and apple aphid cause the
foliage to curl around the insect to protect them from predators. The
suggested solution is to control the aphid. Because it is not possible to
use systemic aphid controls on edible crops I will, I am tolled, have to
protect the new growth.

What could I use and how would I do this?

Your advice would be most helpfull

Kind regards

Bri
