The 'Grand Tour' host is to present the new programme - which has the working title of 'I Bought The Farm' - which will be an eight part series following Jeremy's attempt to run his own 1000-acre working farm in the British countryside.
He said: "Good news! I can finally confirm that I'm going to be spending the next year, in the rain, making a show about farming for Amazon Prime.
"Of course to be a farmer you have to be an agronomist, a businessman, a politician, an accountant, a vet, and a mechanic. And I'm ... none of those things. I don't even know what agronomist means."
Production has begun on the new title, which will be filmed over the coming year, and will show the highs and lows as Jeremy - with some help along the way - tries to set up a viable working farm despite having zero agricultural knowledge.
Georgia Brown, Director of European Amazon Original Series, added: "Jeremy is one of Britain's finest exports and I think I speak for the entire nation when I say I can't wait to see what will happen when he turns his usually petrol-covered hands to life on a working farm. We're excited to bring this latest UK produced Amazon Original series to Prime Video viewers around the world next year. Wishing you lots of luck Jeremy ... what could possibly go wrong?"
Whilst Peter Fincham, Co-CEO Expectation, shared: "I'm excited to be one of Jeremy's farm hands. He's really passionate about farming, and tractors, and all the other stuff that he thinks he knows about. This series will showcase a new, wiser, muddier Jeremy than we've seen before. Can't wait."
