Miss it once, wait another year! Yes, you read that right, the Britannia Idea King is back!
As soon as he returned, he once again scored 9.6 points on Douban.
The British reality show "Clarkson's Farm" has been widely praised by domestic and foreign audiences since its first season, and the protagonist Clarkson is the host of the British car show "Top Gear", but this variety show is no longer the fast-paced, rustic style on the racing track.
"The grumpy old man plows the land online, and he works hard for a year without yielding anything" is the core of this show, and Clarkson is full of tricks and always has a "genius idea" that makes the farm even worse than it can make ends meet.
Familiar recipe, familiar three stinkers, let's go through the latest season together, and see what tricks the old man has-

Synopsis, Mr. Clarkson is the host of the well-known British "Top Gear", and when he retired, he suddenly remembered that he had bought a piece of land in 08 and had been renting it to others to take care of.
Now that the 10-year lease is over, he has a "genius idea" to take back the land and become a farmer himself.
It is worthy of being the big man in the circle who can affect the pricing of cars with just one sentence, and together they are a Lamborghini tractor!
According to the land planning of the farm, there are more than 2,000 acres of land in the whole farm that need to be renovated, and the old man who finally learned to drive the machine with all his skills has worked hard all day and finally renovated only 61 acres of land.
Seeing that one person could not support the entire farm, Clarkson called in two helpers.
The young man Caleb Cooper, nicknamed Chubby, has a deep love for the land, (when Clarkson was away), and is also an out-and-out practical agricultural expert, which can be called a hands-on teaching.
Charlie, another farmbroker, is more of a far-sighted strategist.
He was able to accurately determine the protein content of wheat based on the color of a packet of wheat alone, with an error of less than 0.1%.
Then the old man worked diligently for a whole year under the guidance of two brilliant agricultural experts, and then earned only 144 pounds.
What is planted is killed, what is raised, the profit margin is not calculated by the sale of agricultural and sideline products, and the crops are attacked by badgers, and after hunting, it is found that it is a national first-class protected animal......
That's it, it's the third season, and Clarkson still "never leaves" his farm, despite the opening critical hit.
Lack of precipitation, the land is dry and cracked, and the cultivated land is blasted into concrete.
Large potatoes burst into small potatoes, and sunflowers could not ripen due to lack of rain.
And what worries Clarkson the most is that the farm that had just started last season and had some improvement was also forced to close.
The long-term loss made the old man learn from the pain! Think about the economics of the farm. Sitting at the end of the cultivated land, he looked at the endless bushes that had not yet been developed into the end of the cultivated land, held up his wheat juice, and thought about business opportunities.
Soon after, he discovered the "Hua Dian", and he believed that the fundamental problem with the farms today was that only half of the total area of arable land was cultivated, and the remaining wild crops were not used at all.
Apparently he had the idea of this uncultivated berry field, and he decided to harvest these heavenly berries and turn them into a source of income, so as to increase the harvest of the farm.
Not only that, but he even wants to compete with Chubby, and hires Chubby as the farm manager, in charge of the cultivated land, while he focuses on the new world he discovered.
Of course, the first thing Chubby did when he became a manager was to quit the old man! (Not)
In order to defeat Chubby, Clarkson went off the rails. Using a traditional berry harvester didn't work, he came up with a genius idea again - to harvest with a vacuum cleaner!
Not only is it easy and convenient, but it is also an effective way to judge the ripeness of the berries, which are not yet ripe because they are still relatively hard, so they will not be sucked away.
The old man went back with the berries he had picked up for free, studied the recipe carefully, made the jam deliciously, and proudly said that this is pure profit!
Just when the old man was complacent, the sudden Charlie poured a basin of cold water on Clarkson,
"Did you weigh yourself before you did it?"
"Weighing?" The old man is covered with his head, and this thing still has to be weighed?!
Charlie's soul asks three questions - have you weighed it? What is the pH value? Does this thing contain allergens?
Charlie said that if you want to sell, the ingredient list, ratio, pH value, allergens, etc. of the product need to be on the surface of the packaging, which makes the old man confused.
In this way, he died before he got out of school, and the first pot of fresh blackberry jam was successfully scrapped!
After the first defeat in the jam business, the old man turned his attention to breeding piglets, who could not only be sold as pigs, but also help eat the excess weeds in the woods.
Charlie still said after hearing this, emmmm......
In order to convince Charlie, the old man moved out of the British Prime Minister, determined to beat his own pork to the pork market in Beijing under the leadership of the Prime Minister!
Charlie's inner os: Guess why no one applauds.
Despite Charlie's objections, the old man excitedly introduced a batch of breeding pigs and sows to his farm, determined to let them settle down here to give birth.
But if you want to successfully let the pigs give birth, you still need to go through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, and the first difficulty is breeding.
Because the pig they introduced was a young boy who was still in puberty, it was difficult for him to ride on the sow himself, so the old man had to go on the field himself and "demonstrate" the boar.
Not only that, but in order not to make the other sows jealous, he also held down the other sows and fed her some biscuits to appease the sows.
In addition to the old man's whimsical ideas that make people laugh, the "Clarkson's Farm" series really wants to teach you how to run a farm! Full of dry goods, popular science with a lot of biological knowledge that can shock your jaw.
For example, he can make vegans break their defenses with one sentence.
Old man, in terms of metaphors, you are the first.
In addition to spoofs and cold humor, the old man actually has a warm side, when faced with the little piglet who was dying at birth because of difficult childbirth, he will take the little piglet back to the house, stay by the fireplace, and wait for the miracle to come.
In the first two seasons, he exposed the weather crisis and policy difficulties suffered by British farmers in front of the camera, and called on the government and the public to focus more on the agricultural industry that is closely related to people's lives.
This season, Chubby and Charlie bravely went to Downing Street, satirized the cumbersome and cumbersome government grant application process at the meeting, and expressed their thoughts face-to-face with the British Prime Minister.
Chubby's passion for agriculture is not simply a struggle for his career, but he regards agriculture as his way of life.
One, you don't have to be 9 to 5, but put your actions in nature.
This may be the kind of leisure that "Clarkson's Farm" can bring us.
