Rapid increase of solid wastes is a global challenge and organic waste takes the majority part. Composting is an efficient and effective way of converting solid organic wastes to fertilizers, which could be returned to agricultural lands and at the same time, mitigating pollutions. But by far, composting of solid organic wastes has not been widely used. It is determined by complicated factors and one of them is the low adoption level of composting products, which would hinder the upstream composting practices, but has not been sufficiently studied yet. This review paper tried to identify the main factors that may affect people’s adoption of composting products from solid organic wastes, by carefully reviewing 10 related papers. It is found that efforts could be made in three aspects to encourage people’s adoption of food waste derived fertilizers. The first one is to supply sufficient information about the fertilizers, including nutrient content, trace metal concentration, salinity and pathogen condition to reassure the users about the fertilizers’ quality. The second one is the effective pricing system, which could fully reflect the value of re-using food waste and at the same time make the price of food waste composting products competitive compared to the price of chemical fertilizer. The third one is related regulation, which should encourage and facilitate the market of organic waste-based fertilizers. Those findings point to the directions of empirical studies in future.

固体废物的快速增加是一个全球性挑战，有机废物占了大部分。堆肥是将固体有机废物转化为肥料的有效途径，可以将其返回农田，同时减轻污染。但是到目前为止，固体有机废物的堆肥还没有被广泛使用。这是由复杂的因素决定的，其中之一是堆肥产品的采用率低，这会阻碍上游堆肥的实践，但尚未进行充分的研究。这篇综述论文试图仔细审阅10篇相关论文，以找出可能影响人们采用固体有机废物堆肥产品的主要因素。发现可以从三个方面努力鼓励人们采用食物垃圾衍生的肥料。第一个是提供有关肥料的足够信息，包括营养成分，微量金属浓度，盐度和病原体状况，以使用户对肥料的质量感到放心。第二个是有效的定价体系，它可以充分体现厨余再利用的价值，同时使厨余堆肥产品的价格相对于化肥价格具有竞争力。第三个是相关法规，该法规应鼓励和促进有机废物基肥料的市场。这些发现指出了未来实证研究的方向。第二个是有效的定价体系，它可以充分体现厨余再利用的价值，同时使厨余堆肥产品的价格相对于化肥价格具有竞争力。第三个是相关法规，该法规应鼓励和促进有机废物基肥料的市场。这些发现指出了未来实证研究的方向。第二个是有效的定价体系，它可以充分体现厨余再利用的价值，同时使厨余堆肥产品的价格相对于化肥价格具有竞争力。第三个是相关法规，该法规应鼓励和促进有机废物基肥料的市场。这些发现指出了未来实证研究的方向。
