Further re Myconate

Plant Health Care plc (AIM: PHC), announces that based on another year of successful trial results it is working with a number of parties including major agrichem companies regarding collaborations to further develop and commercialise Myconate. These discussions encompass a wide range of crops and applications. As a result of these discussions the company expects to conclude another significant development agreement in 2009. Further announcements will be made as these discussions progress.

The extensive trials undertaken in recent years provide industry validation of Plant Health Care's Myconate technology and its varied applications. In addition the Myconate trials have been carried out by predominantly independent third parties, including farmers and universities. Myconate trials have consistently shown yield increases of up to 20% or more on a variety of crops.
