Will's Farming Tweaks

Will’s Farming Tweaks is a lightweight Fabric mod that makes farming in Minecraft more efficient and convenient. It enhances hoe harvesting, bonemeal usage, and farmland behavior while remaining fully configurable and modpack-friendly.

The goal is simple: reduce repetitive farming actions without changing core vanilla mechanics.

Features

Hoe-Based Crop Harvesting

Right-click a fully grown crop with a hoe to harvest and replant crops in an area around it.

By default, the harvest radius scales with the hoe used:

• Wooden Hoe: single crop
• Stone Hoe: 3×3
• Copper, Iron & Golden Hoes: 5×5
• Diamond Hoe: 7×7
• Netherite Hoe: 9×9

Each harvested crop consumes 1 durability from the hoe, and crops are automatically replanted.

> Harvest radius, cooldown, and supported hoes are fully configurable.

Area-Based Bonemeal Growth

Using bonemeal on a crop will:

• Always apply bonemeal to the targeted crop (vanilla behavior)
• Optionally apply bonemeal to nearby crops within a configurable radius
• Apply growth chance based on distance from the center

This makes bonemeal more effective for large farms without making it instant or overpowered.

> Bonemeal radius and growth chance are configurable.

Farmland Protection

Optionally prevent farmland from being trampled by players, mobs, or animals.

This helps keep farms intact in busy areas or mob-heavy environments.

> Farmland trampling can be enabled or disabled via config.

Configuration

Will’s Farming Tweaks is fully configurable via a server-side JSON file:

config/wills-farming-tweaks.json

The config is automatically generated on first launch and includes options for:

• Enabling/disabling farmland trampling
• Hoe harvest cooldown
• Harvest radius per hoe item ID (supports modded hoes)
• Bonemeal radius and growth chance

No client-side mod is required - perfect for servers and modpacks.
