Farmer Wants a Wife Episode 5 Commentary

The last episode was the start of the difficult decisions for the farmers with each of them having to ask one of the girls to leave the farm.

Tonight’s episode was recorded on a weekend and all the farmers take one of their girls to an overnight stay at their favourite locations.

The romantic getaways could be just the thing to bring out the one true love that the farmers are looking for.

 Farmer Kev

Kev is recovering from asking Meg to leave the Farm, and Kev says it was one of the hardest things he has ever had to do, ever.  He wakes the girls at 5am and tells them he has some fun installed for them today. Megan says that she is looking forward to it.  First Kev takes the ladies to the Hat shop in Bendigo and tells them he is taking them to the races.   Fiona is good at being the centre of attention, but Megan is always in with a chance.  Megan may find that her quiet ways have captivated Kev’s heart

 Farmer Will

Will is struggling with yesterday’s decision, and it was a real shock to see her leave.  Will now has just Eliza and Sam on the Farm and teaches them how to change a tyre.  Eliza has a great chance with Will and the family also seem to agree.  Sam says that even though Will confronted her she still wants to spend more time with him. 

Will decides to take Eliza on his special date and as they walk off it leaves Sam very emotional.

Farmer Frank

Frank, takes the girls into the paddock to hit some golf balls, and tells us that both the girls are very different personalities. Tenille says that she is a very competitive person and has a real go at hitting the golf ball, after a few misses.  Peta tee’s up the golf ball and hits off with her first shot.  Tenille was taken back when Frank takes Peta into town for a game of golf. 

Farmer John

John is a great believer in love “just happening”.  Today John decides to take Tracy for an overnight stay and it is a bit of a surprise to Alison, and leaves Alison very upset. 

Tracy loved being on the back of the bike with John and felt that it was a wonderful experience.  John has said that he feels there is a connection there; John felt that he really had to impress Tracy with something she has never done.  John feels that she would stand by her man if times got tight, and that seems to be very important to John.

Farmer Tim

Tim has the girls chasing a loose chicken around the farm and has made Tim realise how much he wants a partner in his life.  Izabella has really fallen for Tim and Angela has also fallen for him.  Angela is the girl that Tim chooses to take away for the one on one date. Izabella is not very happy at all about the decision and wonders what they will get up to.

 

Farmer Trent

Trent takes Jenny on a sea change and takes her to a beautiful location beside the water.  Trent is impressed with Jenny’s outgoing ways; he feels that she lifts the mood wherever she is around.    Jenny feels they have a special connection and then Jenny reveals that she has spent too much time in hospital.  Jenny tells Trent that she had a blood clot in the back of her brain which required her to have major surgery.

Farming uncertainty makes farmers jittery

Although seasonal on farm conditions seem optimistic and in good shape, uncertainty outside the farm gate is giving Australian farmers the jitters.  Farmers’ confidence level has hit an all time low with reports that rural confidence has fallen drastically over the past few months. 

Farmers are not only worried about local economic conditions but they are also concerned about global conditions in relation to carbon tax, live cattle exports and coal seam gas mining.  Rabobank Rural Confidence Survey which is conducted among 1200 Australian farmers demonstrates that there has been an increase in number of farmers who believe that the conditions will worsen in the coming year.  The number has increased from 12pc to 35pc from last quarter’s results.  Also, only 18pc are optimistic about the agricultural economy, a number which is drastically lower compared to 42pc previously.
