6. The net income of irrigated farmers was about 17,426,245
Ethiopian birr annually, this means a single irrigated
farmer had an average annual net income of 65,266 birr
(47,691 from crop sale, 16,899 from livestock, and 676
birr from other sources).
Seasons had a different impact in terms of net income.
The highest net income was obtained from the first season
about 48 percent, then from the second season about 32
percent, and the lowest income was collected from the
third season which is only 20 percent of the total income.
In terms of source of income, 73 percent from crop sales,
26 percent from livestock and livestock produce sales, and
1 percent from other sources contributed to the total net
income of farmers.
Hence giving due attention based on the contribution of
income sources is vital to improving the net income of
farmers.

9. Women Empowerment (GMF)
GMF Beneficiaries in Oromia region Koruha SSIP
Effects attributed to GMF by respondents
• Increased inclusion of women in farming
tasks, farming decision-making, decisions
over benefits from farming (income, food)
• Responsibilities are shared and decided
together
• Lower levels of conflict, more love and
respect in and out of the house
• Lower violence to women various kinds
(psychological, verbal, and physical)
• GMF training treats couples as equals,
which changes how couples view each
other. Limited previous opportunities to
work as equals.
• Recognition and sharing of the women’s
work burden by men – source of many
conflicts
• Lead to deeper emotional connection
between husband and wife (listening, love,
respect)
Family, friends, and non-GMF neighbors
notice the positive changes
• Collaboration and responsibility-
sharing
– “…GMF influenced (the trained) couple to
better listen to each other, decide things
together, and work more equally together
for their common goals. We learned from
GMF HH and got experience.”
• Better income/productivity
• Less conflict/domestic violence
– “There is a positive impact because GMF
educated us to solve the problem in
peaceful ways as well as we solve our
conflict and problem through indigenous
democratic ways.”
• More love and respect:
– “[After GMF training’] We enjoy peace,
love, and stability in our home. Because of
there is cooperative work. That means we
help each other to work things together.. ]

45. Reporting Flow and Feedback
The reports systematically provide actual
results using the indicators designed in the
planning phase. Results-based reports are
used to demonstrate accountability to
governing bodies. In writing the results
report should:
• Describe what was achieved and list the
indicators of success;
• Compare actual results with expected results;
• Quantify achievement whenever possible
against a baseline;
• Illuminate findings with quotes, testimonials,
photos, etc;
• Explain the reasons for over or under-
achievement;
• Highlight any unforeseen problems or
opportunities that may require new strategies
or a redesign of the initiative;
• Tell the story of how the results were
achieved, and highlight when there is
potential for wider learning of lessons;
• Recognize the involvement of others
(partners or/and stakeholders) and assign a
degree of attribution, if possible;
• Ensure there is sufficient data to describe
the effects of activities undertaken.

sections);
• Substantiveness and reliability;
