Harvest Scythes
With Harvest Scythes, a right click with a scythe harvests and replants the ripe crops around the player.
What it does
Right-clicking with a scythe harvests nearby crops within a range set by the tool, and replants them as it goes, but only crops that are fully grown are taken. Right-clicking dirt or grass with a scythe turns it into farmland, the same way a hoe does. The harvest area depends on tier: some scythes sweep a circle and others a square.
Harvest Scythes also includes a scythe-only enchantment, Crop Reaper, that extends the range of the scythe it is applied to. Since version 2.0.0 the mod adds machetes, which clear the leaf blocks around the player depending on the tool used. Scythes are crafted from different ingots per tool, and the mod supports tool materials from other mods.
Harvest Scythes requires Fabric API. It runs on Fabric only, and the server and every player need it. The source code and issue tracker are public, the code is under the MIT License, and the 9 release versions cover 1.17.1 – 1.20.1.
Key features
Area harvesting
A scythe harvests and replants all fully grown crops within its range in one click.
Circular and square patterns
Higher-tier scythes harvest in a circle or a square, so the reach of each tool differs.
Crop Reaper enchantment
A scythe-only enchantment increases the harvest range of the scythe it is applied to.
Machetes for leaves
Machetes break surrounding leaf blocks, with the area set by the tool used.

Use cases
Farm clearing
A player with a large field of wheat or carrots can harvest and replant it with one click per patch.
Who it’s for: Players who farm crops by hand on Fabric, and server owners who want harvesting to work in larger areas. The mod is useful on both single-player worlds and multiplayer servers.

What the author says
Right clicking with a scythe will harvest (and replant) nearby crops in a certain range based on the tool, if those crops are fully grown. Right clicking on dirt/grass turns it into farmland like a normal hoe.
