      abstract = {The safe recovery of nutrients from our waste streams  allows us to address the challenges of waste management and  soil nutrient depletion conjointly. Commercialization of  waste-based organic fertilizers such as FortiferTM (fecal  sludge-based co-compost) has the potential to generate  significant benefits for developing economies via cost  recovery for the sanitation sector and the provision of an  alternative agricultural input for smallholder farmers. To  guide future FortiferTM businesses, this report presents  examples of detailed market assessments, based on farmers’  perceptions, attitudes and willingness-to-pay (WTP) for a  pelletized and non-pelletized FortiferTM co-compost. The  research was conducted in the Greater Accra and Western  regions in Ghana, and in and around Kampala (Uganda),  Bangalore (India), Hanoi (Vietnam), and Kurunegala (Sri  Lanka). Cross-country analyses helped to understand the  effects of market drivers and, where possible, capture  lessons learned for knowledge sharing.},
