''A Fazenda''

On 23 June 2013, Urach was officially announced by host Britto Júnior as one of the sixteen celebrity contestants on the sixth season of A Fazenda, the Brazilian version of reality series The Farm, which aired on Rede Record.

During the performance on the show, Urach equalled the record for most times being the Farmer of the Week, which is three times in a single series. This record is also held by Sérgio Abreu, the runner-up of the third season, and Joana Machado, the winner of the fourth season.{{cite web |url=http://televisao.uol.com.br/a-fazenda/6/noticias/redacao/2013/08/19/fazendeira-pela-terceira-vez-andressa-critica-barbara-relaxada-e-imunda.htm |title=Andressa vence Prova de Fazendeiro pela terceira vez |language=Portuguese}} Urach is also tied with fifth season competitor Robertha Portella for the longest period without going to a hot seat in the show, 12 weeks; both were also eliminated from the show the first time they were put in the hot seat.{{cite web |url=http://afazenda.r7.com/a-fazenda-6/fotos/ela-sempre-escapa-da-roca-veja-como-andressa-urach-se-livrou-de-todas-as-berlindas-ate-agora-20130909.html |title=Veja como Andressa Urach se livrou de todas as berlindas no jogo |language=Portuguese |access-date=15 January 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131020133526/http://afazenda.r7.com/a-fazenda-6/fotos/ela-sempre-escapa-da-roca-veja-como-andressa-urach-se-livrou-de-todas-as-berlindas-ate-agora-20130909.html |archive-date=20 October 2013 |url-status=dead}}

On 15 September 2013, after 85 days, Urach was finally evicted from the show in a contest with the eventual winner Bárbara Evans and runner-up Denise Rocha, finishing in seventh place overall in the competition.{{cite web |url=http://televisao.uol.com.br/a-fazenda/6/noticias/redacao/2013/09/16/com-10-dos-votos-andressa-e-eliminada-barbara-e-denise-ficam-no-reality.htm |title=Andressa Urach é eliminada de A Fazenda |publisher=Televisão Uol |date=12 September 2013 |language=Portuguese}}
