How to Farm Crops in Minecraft

Wheat Farming

To farm wheat, get wheat seeds. To get wheat seeds, you will need to destroy long grass. Long grass is easy to find if you are in a plains biome. When destroyed, long grass will drop wheat seeds.

Once you have enough seeds, make a hoe and a bucket. Hopefully you know the crafting recipes for these items. If not, just search for them on Google, they are pretty easy to find.

Then, find a nice stretch of grass blocks and use the hoe to till it to make farmland.

Plant the seeds by right clicking the farmland.

Then, you can dig a canal next to the growing seeds and put water there by using the bucket. If you are on survival mode, you may need to refill the bucket to make the water still.

Then, wait for the seeds to grow.

Once the seeds are fully grown, you can harvest the crops and place new seeds. Wheat will drop 0-3 seeds.

Pumpkin or Melon Farming

To farm pumpkins or melons, you will first need to obtain the seeds. You can find pumpkin seeds in chests in abandoned mineshafts or by finding pumpkins in the wild and crafting pumpkin seeds. Melon seed can be crafted from melons found in jungle biomes, found in abandoned mineshafts, or traded from villagers.

Place the seed on Farmland. Pumpkins and melons will grow on an open dirt block that is immediately adjacent to the seed. The seed will not produce any additional pumpkins or melons until the current ones are harvested. There is no need to replant them, as growing does not consume the seed.

Cocoa Bean Farming

Cocoa beans can be found and harvested from jungle biomes. It is also recommended to pick up some jungle wood from the jungle, as it will be needed to plant the cocoa.

Place down the blocks of jungle wood and put the cocoa beans on the wood. (Place cocoa beans on the side of jungle wood as it cannot be placed on top)]

When the cocoa beans are fully matured, harvest them. They should drop 3 seeds.
