Amazon Prime Video has reportedly confirmed the continuation of Jeremy Clarkson's agricultural adventures, with a sixth season of Clarkson's Farm now officially in the works. This renewal comes as the show prepares to launch its fifth season this spring, ensuring viewers will see more of the former Top Gear presenter's farming struggles for years to come.
Production Already Underway Despite Planned Break
According to reports from The Sun, Amazon has greenlit the new season, and Clarkson has already begun filming after what was described as his "first break from television in forty years" during December. The 65-year-old presenter apparently cut short what was originally intended to be a three-month hiatus to commence production on the forthcoming episodes.
From Investment to International Phenomenon
Clarkson originally purchased Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire back in 2008 as an investment property, but only began actively running the thousand-acre holding in 2019. Since 2021, his farming journey has been documented in the Prime Video series, which has grown to become one of the streaming service's most popular television offerings worldwide.
The show chronicles both the triumphs and tribulations of Clarkson's agricultural career, offering viewers an authentic look at modern farming challenges while maintaining the presenter's signature humor and candid approach.
Business Expansion and Future Limitations
In July 2024, Clarkson expanded his business portfolio by taking over The Windmill pub in Asthall, a traditional country establishment situated on five acres of countryside near Burford. This acquisition, featured in recent episodes of Clarkson's Farm and renamed The Farmer's Dog, represents what the presenter claims will be his final business venture.
Speaking to The Times, Clarkson declared himself "done with business," explaining that he "doesn't understand it" and isn't "motivated by money." Instead, he emphasized his desire for "a good craic" rather than financial gain.
Emotional Fifth Season Approaches
The upcoming fifth season, scheduled for release this spring, is expected to feature some of the series' most emotional content yet. This follows an outbreak of bovine tuberculosis that struck the Cotswolds farm in October 2025, adding to what Clarkson described as the "worst year ever" for his agricultural operations.
Clarkson cited a "shocking" harvest resulting from heatwaves and drought across the United Kingdom, noting that 2025 presented numerous climate-driven disasters that severely impacted farming operations nationwide. He acknowledged that profits from the television series have been crucial to helping Diddly Squat Farm survive what he termed a "disastrous" harvest season.
Television as Agricultural Lifeline
In a social media post addressing the challenges faced by his farm, Clarkson wrote: "If a disaster on this scale had befallen any other industry, there would be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth." When a fan suggested that such "drama" would make for compelling television, Clarkson responded with characteristic bluntness: "Yes. But most farms don't have TV shows to keep them going."
This acknowledgment highlights the unique position Clarkson occupies within the agricultural community, where his celebrity status and television revenue provide a financial buffer not available to most traditional farming operations facing similar climate-related challenges.
With production now underway for both the imminent fifth season and the newly confirmed sixth installment, viewers can expect continued documentation of Clarkson's farming journey, complete with its characteristic blend of humor, frustration, and agricultural education that has made the series such a global success.
