　　The website FarmersOnly. com calls itself an online dating and friendship finder. The idea started in the mind of a man, Jerry Miller in Ohio. He wondered how farmers could meet new people who understand the life of a farmer. Jerry Miller is not a farmer but he represents a lot of farmers.

　　As he tells it, the idea for the site was planted when a farmer told him one day that she was recently divorced and would like to date. But someone would invite her to meet for coffee at nine o’clock at night, when she had to start her day at five the next morning.

　　So, in 2005, Jerry Miller launched his website. “You don’t have to be a farmer to be on FarmersOnly. com, but you do have to have the good old-fashioned traditional values of America’s heartland. ”

　　“You also have to live in the United States or Canada to be a member of the site. Some services are free, but a full membership costs fifty dollars for a year. As of last week the site listed more than 58, 000 members. Many of them are farmers in the United States. Others are students or workers involved in some way with agriculture. ”Jerry Miller tells us about thirty marriages in the last year have resulted from his website.
