Jeremy Clarkson has left his Clarkson's Farm co-star Kaleb Cooper "disgusted" with his latest decision on the farm.

Despite a previous tumultuous episode with sheep farming, the 64-year-old has introduced a new flock to his farm after learning about EasyCare sheep and their advantages.

Viewers of Clarkson's Farm have seen first-hand how much the presenter has previously struggled with sheep farming, from failed attempts at keeping them in a barn, to dealing with their weeping sores and stillbirths.

After the maintenance became too much, Jeremy eventually gave up and handed them over to a local shepherd, which came at a cost.

"I vowed there and then that I'd never have sheep again," he penned in his column for The Sunday Times. "Especially as the whole enterprise had cost me money."

However, last month, after noticing the high prices of lambs following his own £27 purchase, he decided to investigate the market.

"I looked into the market, found that lamb prices are quite high at the moment and, much to Kaleb's disgust, immediately bought a new flock of my own," he disclosed.

Given the chaos he experienced before, Jeremy was not surprised when Kaleb and his partner and co-star Lisa Hogan questioned his decision.

Defending his purchase however, Jeremy said after reading about EasyCare sheep, he believes the journey will be smoother this time around.

EasyCare sheep are a breed primarily developed in the UK, designed to meet the needs of low-input farming.

They are renowned for their low-maintenance traits, making them particularly appealing to farmers seeking to cut down on labour and costs associated with sheep farming.

Jeremy has expressed that "the idea of a fire-and-forget sheep appealed" to him, especially "as they cost no more than a normal sheep. About £155 a pop. So in I plunged".

"Obviously, it's too early to say how they're shaping up but the theory is sound," he further commented. "Because what Iolo Owen, our hero from Anglesey, did was ignore all the usual breeds and wonder what would happen if he did a bit of splicing here and there."

Jeremy continued to explain that although there is a downside to mixing EasyCare sheep with cows in a field, he believes he has outsmarted Kaleb with the "nugget of gold" discovery.

"I'm certain Kaleb doesn't know this. So when the sheep move on from their field and he puts the shorthorns in there, I can pull an incredulous face and wonder out loud how he can call himself a farmer if he didn't know that.

"It'll be my first ever farming win," he concluded.
