In Minecraft farming is essential to surviving. There are two types of farms crop farms and animal farms. Crop farms can contain wheat, melons, pumpkins, carrots, potatoes, coco beans and beetroots. Animal farms can contain cows,pigs,sheep,chickens and rabbits. Each of these animals give a different type of meat and each animal can be bred. There can also be Horses which can be ridden when killed horses give you leather.
Breeding animals. Each type of animal breeds with a different food like pigs breed with carrots or chickens breed with seeds. Here is the list of what foods the animals need to breed
- Sheep=wheat
- Cow=wheat
- Pig=carrot
- Chicken=seeds
- Rabbits=carrots,golden carrots or dandelions
- Horses=Golden Apple or Golden carrot
Now that we’ve learnt about animal farms it’s time to learn about crop farms. Lets learn about what you need to start a farm. To start a farm you are going to need to till an area of grass by right clicking with a hoe. If you don’t know how to make a hoe click this link here it will take you to one of my videos. The video is 3 years old so I sound weird and the video isn’t so good but i am planning to make a new one 🙂How to make a hoe . Now that you know how to make a hoe and you tilled you land you need a water source. If you don’t have a water source then your tilled land will just turn back to dirt. Your water source can only be a maximum of FOUR blocks away from a tilled land block or it wont water it so I recommend having a straight line of water through your farm. Now that you have your tilled land you need your crops so like I said before there are 6 types of food you can plant(not including coco beans we will talk about that later) Carrots,potatoes,watermelons,pumpkins,wheat and beetroots. If you are playing on a version earlier than 1.9 than beetroots will not be there. Now that you’ve chosen what crops you want its time to plant all you have to do for the potatoes the wheat the carrots and the beetroots is right click on the wet farmland. For pumpkins and watermelons its a little bit harder to explain so just watch this video here. How to make a basic farm I hope you guys liked that video I kind of rushed it so I could put it up, but now you guys know the basics of farming in minecraft and I hope you learnt something. Thanks for watching and reading and i’ll see you guys later BYEEEEEE! 🙂
