If a farmer supplies residential accommodation to his workers and deduct from their wages an amount of compensation (rent) for the benefit, should he be taxed on the "rental income" he receives?

Yes the farmer is liable to pay tax on the rental income he earns as it is regarded as an income even if he offers accommodation to them at a discounted rate.
