Instant Harvest
by ANter404
Instant Harvest is a Forge utility that lets players harvest mature crops around them with a single key press.
What it does
Pressing R harvests every mature crop in the area around the player, so a field can be cleared without walking to each plant. The mod suits large farms, where the same routine would otherwise take many separate clicks. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.16.5, with 1.0.9 as the latest file.

Pressing R harvests mature crops in the surrounding area in a single action.

Multiplayer operation
