The Farm is a reality TV show created by the Swedish producer Strix. Sold to more than 40 countries, The Farm is one of their most popular formats, including Survivor, The Bar or Fame Factory. In some countries the series is produced by Endemol, in association with Strix.
Like in Big Brother shows, The Farm puts a group of 12 people living together in a farm. There, the contestants must work as a normal farmer, raising animals and doing agriculture. In regular periods of time, one of the houseguests is evicted, usually in a ceremony called The Duel where they compete in a physical endurance, but in some adaptations of the show, it is the audience that decides, by telephone voting, who must leave The Farm.
Celebrity format, with participants being well-known public figures, is also common.
There are currently 90 winners of The Farm format.
