Plant Health Care, a leading provider of naturally derived products to the global agriculture markets, announces that it has signed a research agreement with Arysta LifeScience to evaluate Harpin commercially as a foliar spray in combination with a number of Arysta LifeScience's products.

Harpin is a leading PHC product and has been shown to increase yields significantly on a variety of

crops when applied alone or in combination with other active ingredients. Arysta LifeScience will test Harpin formulations in combination with a number of its actives. Harpin technology offers yield

improvement as a result of suppression of pests such as nematodes and defense against damaging diseases, as well as additive plant health benefits. Under this agreement, improvements in yield, plant health and product efficacy will be evaluated in a range of crops and environmental situations.
