Auto Harvest

by Pepsied

With Auto Harvest installed on a server, a hoe placed in a chest-fed farm can cut grown crops in its range without a player present.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalMIT License1.20.3 – 26.2

What it does

Auto Harvest lets a chest that holds a hoe work as a farm harvester. Crops that are fully grown within the hoe's range are cut and their drops go back into the chest, covering sweet berries, nether warts and sugar cane. A waterlogged chest fertilizes the farmland around it, and the harvester's range matches the reach of water on farmland.

Each harvest costs the hoe durability, and the hoe is never destroyed by use. When the farm is deactivated or the last use is spent, harvesting stops until the hoe is replaced. Mending can prevent the durability loss, and the mod pairs fortune and unbreaking enchantments on the hoe, raising them up to levels 3 and 10 respectively. The spinning hoe, which keeps a farm active, must be replaced when it wears out.

The server needs the mod, while players may leave it out and still play. The code is under the MIT License and the project is not open source. Files target Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for game versions 1.20.3 – 26.2, with 1.1.0 as the latest build for 26.2.

Key features

  1. Automatic crop harvesting

    A hoe in a chest cuts fully grown crops nearby and returns the drops to the chest.

  2. Hoe durability and enchantments

    Harvests use up hoe durability, and fortune and unbreaking can be raised on the hoe.

  3. Waterlogged fertilizing

    A waterlogged chest fertilizes the surrounding farmland, so the crops in its range grow.

  4. Farm activation

    A farm stops harvesting when deactivated or out of uses, and the spinning hoe keeps it running.

Use cases

Unattended crop farms

Servers and survival worlds can harvest berries, warts and cane while players are elsewhere.

Who it’s for: Server owners and survival players who run automated farms and want chest-based harvesting without building a hopper system for each crop type.

Questions

Does Auto Harvest need to be installed on the client?

No. Only the server has to run it, and players can join without installing it.

Which loaders does Auto Harvest support?

Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and a data pack is also available for server platforms.

Why does the hoe need replacing?

The hoe takes durability damage with each harvest and is never destroyed, but when the spinning hoe wears out the farm is deactivated and needs a new one.

What the author says

Chests can be waterlogged to fertilize the surrounding farmland. The harvester's range is the same range as water's reach to farmland. The hoe takes damage as it harvests. The hoe will never be destroyed. The farm just deactivates harvesting when on its last use left. If the hoe is spinning in the frame, then the…
