The Progress of Ganoderma Lucidum Cultivation by Utilizing Agricultural and Forestry Wastes

Abstract

Agricultural and forestry waste is one of the important and abundant biomass resources in China, and it is of great significance to realise the resource utilisation of agricultural and forestry waste through green and low-carbon biological means, which is conducive to achieving the goal of “carbon neutrality” and promoting the sustainable development of the agricultural and forestry industry. Ganoderma lucidum is rich in various active ingredients and has high medicinal value, so the artificial cultivation of Ganoderma lucidum and product research and development have received extensive attention worldwide. With the expansion of Ganoderma lucidum artificial cultivation industry, the use of agricultural and forestry wastes as a substitute material for Ganoderma lucidum cultivation is a hot research topic nowadays. This paper reviews the research results and application cases of various agricultural & forestry waste conversion using in the field of Ganoderma lucidum substitution cultivation and discusses the development potential and advantages of Ganoderma lucidum cultivation and combined cultivation mode of agriculture and forestry. By analyzing the research results on the resource utilization of agroforestry wastes in Ganoderma lucidum cultivation, we focused on the effects of culture media R&D protocols with different culture substrates, and its effect on the growth efficiency, yield and nutrient composition of Ganoderma lucidum. This provides reference for the high-value utilisation of agricultural and forestry wastes and the development of artificial Ganoderma lucidum cultivation industry, as well as the enhancement of carbon sinks in agricultural and forestry ecosystems.
