Hoe Enchants+
by blunky
Hoe Enchants+ adds six farming enchantments that apply to hoes and axes, changing how crops and crop-like blocks are harvested and replanted.
What it does
Six new enchantments extend hoes and some axes with farming effects. Bonus drops can appear when melons, pumpkins, cocoa beans, mushroom blocks, wheat, carrots, potatoes or beetroot are broken, depending on the enchantment applied. Others widen the harvested or tilled area, or stop players from breaking unripe crops and stems. A harvest can replace a broken crop with a planted seed from the player's inventory. Two of the enchantments are obtained through enchanting, trading or looting, and one only through a librarian trade or a naturally generated structure.
The mod runs on Fabric for 26.2 and needs Fabric API. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The files are released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and the mod is not open source. Its config is planned for a later update, so the enchantments are not yet adjustable.
Key features
Bonus crop drops
Enchanted hoes give extra drops from melons, pumpkins, cocoa beans, mushroom blocks and several crops, with a chance that scales with the level.
Wider harvest and tilling
Harvest and plowing enchantments cover a larger area in one swing, so a field can be cleared or tilled faster.
Protected growing crops
One enchantment stops players from breaking unripe crops and stems, so young plants stay in place.
Automatic replanting
A harvested crop is replaced with a seed from the player's inventory, so the field is replanted in the same action.
Enchantment conflicts
Some of the new enchantments exclude each other, while others share the same weight as Unbreaking 5 or Fortune 2.

Use cases
Clearing a large field
A wider harvest enchantment lets a player cut several crops in one swing, then replant them from inventory.
Growing melon and pumpkin farms
Bonus drops on melons, pumpkins and cocoa beans add yield to the farms that already use these blocks.
Who it’s for: Players who farm crops by hand and want enchanted hoes or axes for harvesting. Players who use enchanting, trading or looting to gather enchanted books will find the new enchantments in those systems.
