The water can be covered with any block, but using a slab, carpet, lily pad, or other block that can be walked onto without jumping is better to prevent trampling. Leaving the water source uncovered poses a risk of falling into it and then trampling some of the farmland when jumping out of it. For larger farms, this plot can be repeated in both the X and Z directions. This gives 80 blocks of farmland which can be fenced with 40 pieces of fence including gates and is the most efficient arrangement for simple farms.

However, once the player has a comfortable amount of resources, setting up some fenced farm plots prevents mobs from trampling the crops and attacking the farmer.Ī basic repeatable farm plot consists of a 9×9 square of farmland with the center square dug out and filled with a water source block. Note, however, that this "dry farming" makes crops grow slowly.Īt the beginning of the game when buckets are not available, you can till the dirt at the edge of a pond or lake or river, perhaps digging a trench to extend the water supply inland or straightening the shoreline by adding or removing dirt blocks at the top layer of the water's edge. The farmland does not revert until after the crop is harvested, and even so that can generally be avoided by immediately replanting. Thus, it is possible to grow crops without water (say, in the Nether) by hoeing the dirt and immediately planting a crop. If farmland becomes completely dry and a crop is planted on it, the farmland does not revert to dirt.

The water can be a "still" source block, or flowing, but either needs to be within four blocks of the farmland horizontally, on the same vertical level or one level above. If there is no water nearby, farmland dries out and reverts to dirt, but only if there is no crop yet planted on it. These crops can only be planted on farmland, which is produced by using a hoe on dirt or grass blocks. Carrots (or dandelions) can also be used for rabbits. Given some gold, carrots can be crafted into golden carrots, one of the best foods in the game.Ĭrops can also be used to lure and breed various farm animals: Wheat for cows and sheep (or the rare mooshrooms), seeds ( any kind) for chickens, and any of carrots, (raw) potatoes or beetroots for pigs.

Potatoes can also be cooked into baked potatoes for more nutrition.

(A potato plant also has an additional 2% chance of dropping a useless poisonous potato.) Both carrots and potatoes can be eaten directly, but can also be improved: Each mature plant can be harvested to get 1-4 potatoes or carrots respectively. Killed zombies occasionally drop a single carrot or potato (which you can cultivate and multiply into a farm's worth).

Carrots and potatoes are their own seed, which is planted directly to grow more of the same.

As with wheat, Beetroot items cannot be planted. Beetroots can also be crafted into red dye. With a crafting table and a bowl, beetroots can be crafted into Beetroot Soup, a more filling (but non-stackable) food item.

Beetroots are similarly grown from beetroot seeds, each plant yielding one beetroot and 1-4 seeds.

The wheat items can be crafted into bread, or combined with other items to make cake, or cookies. If harvested early, they drop a single seed, but no wheat. Harvesting a mature wheat plant yields 1 piece of wheat and 1-4 seeds. Each grass plant has only a 1⁄ 8 chance of dropping seeds, grass is common in most biomes, so gathering seeds is fairly easy.

Wheat is grown from seeds, which can be collected by destroying grass.

Carrots, potatoes, and beetroot are usually not found until somewhat later in the game. Players may want to set up a wheat farm early on, to provide bread as their first food supply however, as the game progresses, better foods become available, and the wheat farm can be re-purposed for breeding animals. In addition to the sources listed below, all four crops can be found in village farms, and sometimes in village chests. All four crops provide food for the player, and also to breed various farm animals. These can be used to replant, and plant more empty spots, until you've filled your farm. After the first few seeds, or the first carrot or potato are planted, they eventually produce more seeds or vegetables than you started with.
