- The 25-year-old said he still saw his future in farming, despite newfound fame.
Kaleb Cooper has revealed his plans for life after Clarkson’s Farm and the moment he thinks he’ll have ‘made it’ – as the team prepare to celebrate the launch of the third series of the hit Amazon series Prime Video.
Despite his newfound fame, the 25-year-old said he still saw his future in farming – but he wondered if there was a future in farming for him.
The new series features a bet between Kaleb and Jeremy Clarkson over who can win the most money on Diddly Squat Farm.
The crew faces challenges as crops fail due to extremely hot weather and inflation drives up the prices of farm supplies.
Kaleb told the Telegraph: “I think I’ll feel successful when I buy a farm.
“At this point I can relax a little and spend a little more time with family.”
However, he explained that “everything is blowing up right now” and that he is doing everything he can not to move away from the place he “loves the most.”

The new series features a bet between Kaleb and Jeremy Clarkson over who can win the most money on Diddly Squat Farm.
Kaleb said it was “frustrating” to be kicked out of his hometown, adding: “That’s why I’m so busy doing everything I can to make this dream (of buying a farm) come true…I I’m going to do it one day. day.’
The 25-year-old added that he gets his drive to succeed from being told by everyone that “you can’t do this or you can’t do that.”
He swore that owning his own farm was a way for him to prove everyone wrong.
At the launch to celebrate the new series this week, Kaleb praised Jeremy, 64, revealing he was a “really good pig farmer”.
Kaleb said of Jeremy’s latest arrivals: “With the pigs, I was like, here we go, here’s another thing I’m going to have to keep but actually, this is the only thing I can leave with you TO DO. He’s actually a very good pig breeder.”
The presenter was left in tears after his beloved piglets “died in alarming numbers”, with heartbreaking scenes set to air on the show.

Kaleb added: “What the competition (between him and Jeremy) highlights is how much money you have to invest as a farmer to then produce food for people on their tables.”
Jeremy revealed some of the increasing costs associated with running Diddly Squat Farm: “Usually we would probably spend around £40,000 on seed, fertiliser, slug pellets, diesel etc. and all the things you need to grow food. .
“Well, last year we had to spend £108,000.”
The first part (episodes 1 to 4) will be launched May 3, followed by part 2 (episodes 5 to 8) launched May 10 on Amazon Prime Video
