Moo Man

Spanish translation: granjero tradicional

Agriculture / Specific term
English term or phrase: Moo Man
The word/term Moo Man does not exist. It is actually the name of a documentary.
"The remarkable story of a maverick farmer and his unruly cows, filmed over four years on the marshes of the Pevensey Levels.
In an attempt to save his family farm, Stephen Hook decides to turn his back on the cost cutting dairies and supermarkets, and instead stay small and keep his close relationship with the herd."
However, I'm translating some farming blogs which use it as a noun to describe a type of farmers.
I think simply translating as "granjero/agricultor" is not enough.

Reference information:
Sin "hombre" sólo vaquero, caporal o gaucho para argentina y países colindantes. Esto en sentido formal. Un tanto más "informal" podría ser Mr. Muu, Sr. Muu, Vaquero Muu o dejar Muuman (usando muu la onomatopeya en español)... para mi eso sería más plausible...
