Richard Rains has devoted a lifetime to the Australian agriculture industry, yet his story of success began when he was told that returning to his family’s farm would not be an option for him.
As a child from Dunedoo, Richard Rains hardly saw his future in a career that had him liaising with the Korean Government and doing business with McDonald’s in North America.
Richard's story is remarkable as he shares more about his childhood, the advice he received from his father to pursue a career in agriculture in the city, the importance of education and why Richard is so passionate about supporting the next generation.
