Across the world, farmer populations are seeing a change with statistics showing that there is a big decline in the amount of people becoming farmers, and working fulltime as professional farmers and of the offspring of farmers taking up their parent's role.  Several sectors have also moved to operate under tight contractual arrangements with some suppliers as opposed to the open market conditions that were the norm with previous years.

These changing demographics are affecting a wide range of varying industries and have been the subject of many studies and statistical analysis throughout the globe. Australia's dense coastal population can much of the time leave our farmers, including miners of rural Australia forgotten by businesses and large service companies ie: phone or electricity companies. In recent times the Australian Bureau of statistics gathered detailed data on the farming population.The Australian government is using this data to try and create policy to support Australian farming communities.

There are regional organizations set up to help Australia's farmers who are suffering from the reduction in farmers, single farmers of all ages are finding it difficult to find social outlets and partners with whom to form a lasting relationship.  TV shows like "farmer wants a wife" have opened up more options for singles and now dating farmers is catching on with city singles looking for fresh air and a quiet lifestyle.  The newest series of
the Famer Wants A Wife is gearing up to start as the programmes producers look for the final contestants for the show.  A new bunch of eligible farmers will now have their opportunity to meet the lady of their dreams on Channel Nine's popular reality series.The show is calling for single women in Australia to apply to be included in the show and possibly find true love. Of course not all female singles who apply can meet the 12 farmer bachelors found by the TV followers.

So the question to be asked is - how to do you get the opportunity to meet one of these distant, rural, farmers.  The United Kingdom has websites available such as lovehorse, an online community of horse and outback lovers offering equestrian dating for horse or country singles offering rural farmers somewhere to meet and to chat online.  In Australia there are free online dating and chat websites that have group features with "rooms" for single farmers to socialize with online dating partners. 

The growth of the internet across the world has enabled rural farmers to form meaningful relationships and to easily be introduced to other singles online.  Australian farmers, particularly, can benefit using free online dating sites set up for the sole purpose to target Australian online singles.  A few sites target certain outback singles, although rural country online dating users often discover free online dating websites are aimed at more broad Australian singles which present farmers with more opportunities and a larger range of singles suited to their outback lifestyle.
