J&B Farm

by Jest_Bens

J&B Farm adds crops that carry buffs to neighbouring plants, along with a disease that players can cure with a hoe.

FabricClient and serverGNU General Public License v3.0 or later1.20.1

What it does

Raspberry bushes give nearby plants a pleasant buff, so placing them among other crops changes how a field works. Plants can fall ill once the mod's disease mechanic is active, and a sick crop shows yellow pixels and stops growing until it is treated. Hitting the crop with a hoe cures it. Seeds come from breaking grass, with a 10% chance of dropping one.

The mod targets players who want farming to hold more decisions than planting and harvesting. It runs on Fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1 only, and Fabric API is required. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, and the project is not open source. Version 0.2 is the latest Fabric file and was posted on 2024-06-07 in the beta channel; the first file was published on 2024-05-27.

Key features

  1. Crops with buffs

    Raspberries give surrounding plants a buff, so the layout of a field matters.

  2. Crop disease

    Plants can get sick, stop growing and show yellow pixels until a hoe strike cures them.

  3. Seeds from grass

    Breaking grass has a 10% chance to yield a seed for the new crops.

  4. Planned additions

    The author plans more crops, dishes, cooking methods and achievements, and possibly mobs.
