CropXP
CropXP gives players a small amount of experience each time they harvest a fully grown crop, without changing how farming works in Minecraft.
What it does
Harvesting a mature crop awards experience by default, between 1 and 3 points with a 100% chance. Breaking the crop and right-clicking it both count as harvesting, and the minimum, maximum and chance can be set in the configuration, with per-crop overrides available. Crops from other mods that the game can recognize are detected automatically.
Server owners control the settings for multiplayer, and the configuration is authoritative on the server. An optional setting also grants experience to players in Creative mode. The mod runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it works out of the box without any changes to the configuration. The server must run the mod, while a client without it can still join. Cloth Config API and Fabric API are required, and Mod Menu is optional.
Key features
Experience for harvesting
Fully grown crops award experience when harvested, a small reward on top of the food they provide.
Breaking and right-click harvesting
Both breaking a crop and right-click harvesting are supported, so either method of farming awards experience.
Configurable rewards
Minimum and maximum experience, and the chance of a reward, can be set in the configuration file.
Per-crop chance overrides
Each crop can have its own chance of awarding experience, set independently of the global defaults.
Creative mode option
An optional setting lets players in Creative mode receive harvesting experience as well.

How it compares
Actually Harvest is client and server, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.20 – 26.3 on all three loaders. Crops XP is needed on the server, with the client optional, open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and published for Fabric only, for 1.20.1 – 1.21.10. Simple Harvest is server-side only, but it is Fabric only, with a license that is not open source. CropXP is open source under CC0 1.0 Universal too, and it is available on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.
