Farmer Wants A Wife,returns at 7.00pm, July 3, on Channel 7 and 7plus.
The new season will see Farmer Matt (26, Orbost, Victoria), Farmer Andrew (30, Delegate, NSW), Farmer Sam (24, Canowindra, NSW), Farmer Will (39, Longwood, Victoria) and Farmer Rob (40, Snowy Mountains, NSW) looking for love.
The show will once again deliver dream overnight dates, luxury country getaways and spectacular group get-togethers, setting the stage for life-changing love stories to blossom.
The farmers will choose eight ladies to meet from thousands of single women who saw their profiles online, before inviting five of them back to their beloved farm.
The farmers have six weeks to learn more about their five chosen ladies and determine if there is enough chemistry and compatibility for everlasting love in the country.

Ahead of the season premiere, Mediaweek spoke to Seven Network executive producer Sylvia D’Souza about what we can expect from the new season of the show.
In the second year of the show’s return on Seven, D’Souza said that this season will feature more country, more romance, and more episodes.
“The whole premise of it is for the ladies to get a taste of country life. They want to be connected to the country and want to have a taste of it, as they see if the farmers that they picked are right for them.
“This season we kind of integrated more of the country life in this series, there is more romance and chances to date with different isolated dates.”
With 170 marriages, one long-term relationship and 387 babies worldwide, Farmer Wants a Wife is one of the most successful dating formats of all time.
In Australia alone, the series has resulted in nine marriages, one long-term relationship and 23 babies.
When asked why she thought this formula was so productive D’Souza said that the key is just getting out of the way.
“We put the farmers up on the website, and we let the ladies choose who they want to meet or find a connection with. Then it is up to the farmers to pick eight bios that they think there is some connection with and then we put them on a speed date in the Hunter Valley and then we just let the chemistry happen.”
