FARMER Wants a Wife contestants Allen Foster and Hunter Grayson have revealed more about the traits they're looking for as they embark on their journey to find love.

Ahead of the March 8 premiere of the new unscripted Fox TV show, The U.S. Sun chatted exclusively with the four farmers hoping to find love, including Foster and Grayson.

Foster, a cattle rancher from Tennessee, and Grayson, a cattle and horse rancher from Georgia, are two of the four men featured on Farmer Wants a Wife, along with Ryan Black and Landon Heaton.

While the farmers have spent years cultivating their careers and honing their lifestyles, the women vying for their hearts all hail from big cities.

But for Foster, 32, and Grayson, 31, physical location isn't a major concern.

“I don’t need a business partner. I’m not looking for a business partner," Grayson told The U.S. Sun.

"I’m not looking for a ranch hand. I’m looking for my partner in life.

"I don’t care where you come from, I don’t care where you’ve been.

"It’s where we’re gonna go that’s gonna make a difference to me."

Foster agreed, saying: "It’s what she’s made of, not how she was raised."

"It’s what she’s made of.”

"I’ll say, from the bottom of my heart, these ladies - their willingness to learn and adapt to a new lifestyle that they’re not accustomed to, it truly was eye-opening and heartwarming for me at least," Grayson added.

SEEKING EMPATHETIC PARTNERS

Oftentimes, as Foster and the other farmers shared, there are plenty of ups and downs in a single day in their line of work.

As a result, Foster emphasized the need for empathetic partners.

"It’s a big help when you’ve got a partner who not only understands but empathizes with you and helps you through that struggle," he shared.

"A lot of times that can mean the difference in a bad five minutes and a bad day.”

"It’s just not all rainbows and glitters and buttercups.

"I think that’s really hard to accept, especially in this day and age."

'SOMEONE I CAN DEPEND ON'

For Heaton, a 35-year-old cattle rancher from Oklahoma, it boiled down to one simple thing.

“It’s not how she was raised, it’s what she’s willing to help with," he said.

"I just need someone I can depend on both physically, emotionally, and intellectually.

"I don’t care if you were raised in a city your entire life.

"I don’t need some girl who grew up on a ranch. I don’t need a city girl.

"I need somebody who is my partner," he concluded.

LOOKING FOR LOVE

Farmer Wants a Wife originally premiered in the UK back in 2001.

The show has since been produced in over 30 countries.

More than 180 marriages and 400 kids have resulted, Fox has said.

A US version briefly aired on the CW in the spring of 2008.

Now, the farmers are looking for love among a group of 32 ladies broken up into groups of eight per farmer.

The show explores whether a city girl can be happy enough to relocate to the country full-time if she finds her dream man.

The groups of eight will be narrowed down to five per farmer after the first episode.

Then, as the weeks go on, the women stay so long as they feel a connection to their farmer.

There are no eliminations, which is in contrast to similar dating shows like The Bachelor.

Instead, some women will drift away while others will lose interest and decide to leave on their own.

The goal is for each farmer to propose to one woman by the end of the season.

Farmer Wants a Wife premieres on March 8 on Fox.
