Overview

Analysis finds factors influencing water use and farmers' willingness to pay for irrigation in Central Oromia, highlighting operational challenges.

Key Points

  • Farmers' willingness to pay for irrigation water averages 155.33 Birr per 0.25 hectares annually, indicating potential revenue for scheme maintenance.
  • Key factors influencing water use include education level, access to services, and household size; all need addressing for enhanced irrigation.
  • Analysis used a two-limit Tobit model to assess the impact of various variables on participation and water use among households.
  • Improving institutional frameworks and training farmers could bolster irrigation scheme performance and foster sustainable practices.
