Dec 14, 2017: Raleigh, NC – Plant Health Care (AIM: PHC) a leading provider of novel patent-protected biological products to global agriculture markets, today announced that EDAF would become the exclusive distributor in Portugal for its proprietary ProAct and Myconate plant health enhancement products.
