Water scarcity is a significant challenge in semi-arid regions of Kenya, particularly affecting agricultural productivity and farmers' income. A mixed-methods approach was employed, including surveys and focus group discussions among farmers implementing various water management technologies. Farmers using drip irrigation reported a 20% increase in crop yields compared to those without such technology. Water management technologies significantly enhance agricultural productivity and income for semi-arid Kenyan farmers, warranting wider adoption. Government support and extension services should be provided to promote the use of water-saving technologies among smallholder farmers.
