Leaf Curl In Figs

Question

I have a Black Genoa fig about 8 years old. Of recent years latter leaves start curling up at the edges and the curled margin is slightly yellow. The first flush of leaves are ok. I have been spraying with a copper compound, thinking it may be a fungal problem but that hasn’t made much, if any, difference. The tree is bearing well. I live in the Northern Rivers District of New South Wales where the summers are supposed to be wet, but we are in a drought and have had only one third of our expected rainfall so far this year. Can you help?
