Australia’s favorite matchmaking show, Farmer Wants A Wife, is back in 2025 on Channel 7 and 7plus, with a fresh batch of farmers searching for their soulmates. The show, known for creating lasting relationships, boasts 11 marriages and 27 children in Australia. The new season starts after Easter.
Here’s the Lowdown: Four new farmers are ready to find love: Farmer Corey (24, from Biloela, QLD, growing beans, hay, and cotton), Farmer Jarrad (21, from Stanthorpe, QLD, a sheep farmer), Farmer Thomas (35, from Kimba, SA, growing wheat, barley, and lentils), and Farmer Tom (31, from Borambola, NSW, also a sheep farmer). Each farmer has selected eight women from thousands of applicants to meet.
What This Means Now: The show’s return indicates its continued popularity and success in connecting rural singles with potential partners. The 2024 season reached 9.9 million viewers, with an average audience of 1.2 million.
The Bigger Picture: Farmer Wants A Wife is more than just entertainment; it’s presented as a genuine pathway to lasting love and family. The show’s track record of marriages and children highlights its real-world impact. It’s a co-production between Fremantle Australia and Eureka Productions for the Seven Network. The new season is set to premiere after Easter, so the search is on again.
