Agricultural technology adoption is expected to positively affect agricultural outputs (Brookes & Barfoot, 2018; Ogada et al., 2014; Rehman et al., 2017;
Thompson & Gyatso, 2020). Moreover, an increase in agricultural outputs is as-sociated with improved farm incomes and eventually improves farming house-
holds’ well-being (Brookes & Barfoot, 2018; Ding et al., 2011; Hailu et al., 2014; Lokina et al., 2011). Various agricultural technologies have various effects on the
farm incomes; these depend on how much the factors that affect the adoption of the technologies also affect crop yield and, eventually, farm incomes (Anang etal., 2016; Awotide et al., 2013; Diiro, 2013).
Adoption of any intervention must be geared towards the benefits that one is deriving from the intervention. Farm income is one of the benefits that a farmer expects from any farming investment.In arid and semi-arid areas, investing in water-related technologies is expected to affect productivity and eventually increase farm incomes. However, there is limited empirical evidence on the effects of the irrigation technologies managed and controlled at the household level on farm incomes.
