Nigel Owens
You cannot, though, talk about rugby and farming and not mention world-renowned referee, Nigel Owens. The Welsh rugby star lives on a farm in Wales, rearing his beloved Herefords.
In an interview with 草榴社区 Guardian's chief reporter, Rachael Brown, Nigel discussed his love for the sporting world and his rugby career, but his passion is farming.
He said: "If you had to give me the choice now, between walking out into that field among my Herefords on a lovely summer's evening or on a field in front of 85,000 people booing and shouting me, I think you would know what the answer would be.
"I enjoyed my time as a referee. It has given me opportunities over the years to save up and have this farm."
