UTAD DEVELOPS NATURAL BIOSTIMULANTS TO MAKE CHERRY PRODUCTION MORE SUSTAINABLE

The Centre for Agricultural and Biological Environmental Technologies Research (CITAB) at the University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro will develop new natural biostimulants to make cherry production more sustainable and resistant to adverse environmental conditions. The BIOsCherry project, funded by the "la Caixa" Foundation and coordinated by researcher Berta Gonçalves, aims to create natural-based solutions that improve cherry tree responses to stress, increasing fruit productivity and quality. The most promising products will be tested in orchards in Trás-os-Montes and Fundão, where their impact on tree development and environmental adaptation will be assessed. The project also seeks to valorize endogenous resources and circular economy principles for more sustainable agriculture prepared for the effects of climate change.

Working sitting on tatami reduces anxiety and increases performance, new Japanese study shows

A new study from Kyushu University in Japan, published in the journal Scientific Reports, revealed that working sitting on tatami mats can reduce anxiety and increase performance in tasks requiring concentration. Researchers found that this traditional Japanese flooring promotes increased brain activity in regions linked to engagement and focus. Additionally, participants reported lower tension and anxiety during activities. Professor Kuniyoshi Shimizu, from the Faculty of Agriculture, explained that the team had previously demonstrated the relaxing effects of aromatic compounds in Igusa (tatami material) and that this time sought to explore other benefits such as mood, stress resilience, and task engagement.
