Green sustainable development is an extremely important concept, and the most representative industry is agriculture. The agricultural industry value chain covers the connotation of green and sustainable innovation. Circular agriculture is a revival of old agricultural practice, and the concept is a combination of crop planting and livestock farming to minimize the losses in the food production chain. This study explores the effects of Ganoderma lucidum compound added in feed on goat weight and anti-inflammatory through a case study. This study uses average weight difference analysis and an independent t-test to verify the goat weight gain and growth, and uses nitric oxide, interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor α, and tetrazolium to verify goat health. This study shows that dietary supplementation of the Ganoderma lucidum compound has better performance in weight gain and growth of goats. It also provides a method of reducing antibiotics to promote health and welfare in the goat or even the livestock breeding industry. At the same time, it may help livestock owners to improve management efficiency.

Abstract

Green sustainable development is an extremely important concept, and the most representative industry is agriculture. The agricultural industry value chain covers the connotation of green and sustainable innovation. Circular agriculture is a revival of old agricultural practice, and the concept is a combination of crop planting and livestock farming to minimize the losses in the food production chain. This study explores the effects of Ganoderma lucidum compound added in feed on goat weight and anti-inflammatory through a case study. This study uses average weight difference analysis and an independent t-test to verify the goat weight gain and growth, and uses nitric oxide, interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor α, and tetrazolium to verify goat health. This study shows that dietary supplementation of the Ganoderma lucidum compound has better performance in weight gain and growth of goats. It also provides a method of reducing antibiotics to promote health and welfare in the goat or even the livestock breeding industry. At the same time, it may help livestock owners to improve management efficiency.
