  Looking for ideas on good farm magazines or books  for a Retired farmer in their 80s . He already gets Our Iowa and loves it  but hoping for additional suggestions. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Not sure if he's a fan of his neighboring state, but Nebraska Life is a really cool magazine also....Great colored pictures and lots of stories about the small towns in the state....$21 for a year (bi-monthly).

Everyone likes it at the bank....

Depending on your price range:  Small portable weather station (every farmer, regardless of age, keeps up to date on the weather!)
                                                Any book by James P Owens Examples include "The Try", "Cowboy Ethics", or "Cowboy Values" (I would recommend those for ANY age, ANY career!)

time-life books will have quite a collection of books with old memory stories that he may enjoy. For example, Outhouses & Privies.
