This Sunday is Father’s Day and if you’ve left it until the last minute to get you father something well you’ve come to the right place!

1. A tank of green diesel

With the price of agri diesel on the rise again, like all the other fuels, a tank of green diesel will surely be appreciated by the ‘pops’, as this is a significant cost in most farming enterprises.

2. Baler twine

Whether it’s used for adopting lambs or tying the trousers up, your auld lad would be lost without a ‘skelp’ of twine wherever in the country he may be. This is an essential for the arse pocket.

3. A pen knife

Wherever baler twine may be, there must be a pen knife in close range. A pen knife will get your father out of more than one situation.

If it’s tightening a loose screw or simply cleaning out the calf de-horner during use, farming would be a more complex business without a pen knife.

4. A new stereo system for the milking parlour

With the noise of machinery rattling through your father’s ears his whole life, he’s probably a bit short on hearing and tends to complain that he can ‘hear nothin’ on that radio in the milking parlour’.

A new stereo system with plenty of speakers would surely solve this problem… or make it worse.

5. A new flask for the tae

Transport of the tae from the kitchen to bog can often be a sensitive issue among the older farming community with many complaining that the tae’s gone ‘cowld’.

Buying a decent flask for your dad this fathers day is sure to be appreciated by himself.

6. A mobile phone holder for the tractor

This is a must have if your father is notorious for losing his phone and finding it six months later in the silage pit in a 100 pieces.

This is a very cheap and simple gift but a base for your father’s mobile phone.

7. A smartphone so that he can download the Agriland app.

Is he always giving out about the lack of news on the phone? Well we can suggest you buy him a smartphone and download the Agriland app.

This will provide him with quick updates on all things farming!

8. A new cap

Most dads wear a cap that’s seen it all – whether it was the knocking of the Berlin wall or the opening of Knock airport. The cap is old and probably covered in manure.

A new John Deere cap would surely get him another 20 growing seasons.

9. A can of WD 40

This will mean the world to your father. When it comes to machinery repairs, loosening rusty bolts or lubrication, a can of WD 40 will not let you, your father, or in fact anyone in your family, down.

10.A vice grips
