Farm

A farm is a generated structure in a village used for growing various crops.

Generation
Farms generate naturally in villages. All farms generate with farmland blocks, water, and at least one composter. Most farms generate with crops, mostly wheat, but melons, pumpkins, beetroot and carrots may also be found. In addition, there is a 20% chance for village farm plots to generate with potatoes planted.

Post-generation
A player may create a working farm in any biome. A farm needs only a water source block next to farmland blocks, which are created by a hoe on dirt blocks. Given sufficient light, seeds or other crops may then be planted on the farmland and grown to maturity for harvesting.

Use
While a village farm is a good ready-made source of food, a village is not required. A player with access to water, dirt, and a hoe may create a farm anywhere. For a typical early-game survival farm, a player plants seeds harvested from breaking tall grass, which then grow into wheat. Once the crops have matured, they can harvested and then used for food, for trading, breeding livestock, or for breeding villagers.

Farmer villagers use a farm's composter as a job site. Farmer villagers can also be seen occasionally harvesting crops.

Structure
Farms generate in different configurations depending on the biome. Some farms have irregular shapes that can vary from the configurations shown below. As seen on the right, it is possible for a minimal farm to generate naturally with one water block and eight farmland blocks.

As shown in the sections below, additional resources that make up the structure are available, beyond the farmland, water, and composter blocks found in all farms.
