Format
As in Big Brother, 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.
