The research explores the impact of various socio-economic factors, including education level, number of earning members, land ownership, household size, access to credit and employment type, on household income. A linear regression model was employed to identify the significance and strength of these factors. The results indicate that education, number of earning members, land ownership and access to credit positively influence household income, while larger household size has a negative impact.
