Joe’s introduction video was posted to the official Farmer Wants a Wife Instagram page, with the rugby and horse-mad farmer taking the opportunity to get across what he was looking for in a potential wife.
“Say hello to Joe! He’s tall, dark, and handsome with a passion for adventure 💫,” the video was captioned.
“Is Joe the cowboy you’ve been looking for?”
In the video, Joe is shown riding horses, chopping wood (shirtless, of course), fishing and doing some home handywork.
“G’day, I’m Farmer Joe, and yeah, I’m just looking for someone to come for a horse ride with me,” he began in the video, showing off his gap-toothed smile.
“The farm’s situated in the Snowy Mountains region, on The Monaro,” he went on to explain.
“We’ve got 600 acres here, and it’s been in the family for 30 odd years.
“Ever since I could be on a horse, I have been.
“I’m definitely looking for a girl that has an interest in them; if she doesn’t know how to ride, I’d like her to learn.”
Farmer Joe added that he was looking for someone willing to give things a go.
“I’m starting to build a future with the farm and (have) got big, grand plans of building my own home and things like that,” he continued.
“I guess the only thing that is missing is having a wife to do that with and to fill it full of kids.”
Asked what he could bring to a relationship, he grinned and said: “Oh, this winning smile for one!”
“I’m looking for someone who is grounded and someone organised, because I’m not organised most of the time,” he joked.
“But someone who just likes me, for me.
“I just want to make someone’s life better, to be honest.”
Farmer fans loved the video, tagging friends they thought might be keen or expressing their own fascination with Farmer Joe.
“OK all that aside, Joe is the Go,” wrote one person, tagging two female friends.
“Dreamy,” wrote another.
“Let’s go!” wrote a third, tagging a friend.
“He’s tempting,” another said.
Tagging a friend, one follower wrote: “You love horse riding, don’t you?”
“Dammmm,” enthused another.
“Lucky I can teach you how to ride a horse,” one follower wrote, tagging a friend.
Casting is now open for single ladies looking to find their happily-ever-after with Farmer Joe or one of the other eligible farmers.

Third-generation cattle, sheep, goat and crop farmer Dustin feels a huge sense of responsibility to continue the family legacy.
He has a heart of gold, is cheeky and loves to “take the mickey”.
Dustin describes himself as a “girlfriend guy” whose ideal partner is happy, fun-loving, thick-skinned and has a good sense of humour.

After living and working around the world, Joe’s family’s cattle and sheep farm is where his heart is.
It’s his dream to bring the farm back to its full potential.
Joe is a passionate rugby player and loves horses, fishing and travel.
A bit of a social butterfly, his charming smile and playful cheeky personality is infectious.

He is extremely close to his mother, whom he cared for during her breast cancer battle three years ago.
Farmer Zac, 28, Strathalbyn, South Australia
A third-generation cattle and crop farmer, there is more to Zac than meets the eye.
A contract helicopter musterer, he owns three helicopters and runs a helicopter scenic tours business in South Australia.

Farmer Todd, 33, Baan Ba, NSW
Third-generation beef farmer Todd wants what his parents and sister have: a happy, loving marriage with kids.
An all-round, likeable, sweet, well-mannered but cheeky country boy, he feels a bit left behind as the last single fella standing among his mates.
Todd’s looking for someone who’s smart, genuine, easy going, happy to enjoy the farm-life and willing to have a go.
She should also be able to take a joke as Todd will definitely give her a bit of a ribbing.
