Replanting Crops
by Serilum
Players who harvest large fields with a hoe can have Replanting Crops reseed each plot from the drops it leaves behind.
What it does
When a supported crop is harvested with a hoe, the mod uses the seeds from the drops to plant the crop again on the same spot. Wheat, carrots, potatoes, beetroots, nether wart and cocoa beans are covered, and version 4.0 added replanting for crop blocks built on the vanilla crop class from modded content.
Replanting depends on two controls. The config option mustHoldHoeForReplanting, which is enabled by default, requires a hoe in the player's hand before any replanting happens. Holding the sneak key stops replanting for that harvest, which helps when a farm is being cleared out. Several crops can be harvested at once, and each one is replanted from its own drops.
The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 29 release versions, covering 1.16.5 – 26.3. Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own. Installation requires Collective. Replanting Crops is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Automatic reseeding
Harvested crops are replanted from the seeds in their own drops, so a field keeps producing without manual planting.
Hoe requirement
The config option mustHoldHoeForReplanting, enabled by default, only replants while a hoe is held in the hand.
Sneak to skip replanting
Holding the sneak key prevents replanting for that harvest, which suits clearing a farm.
Modded crop support
Crops built on the vanilla crop class can be replanted, in addition to the vanilla crops.

Use cases
Clearing a farm
Holding sneak while harvesting leaves the plots empty, so a farm can be dismantled without replanting.
Large crop fields
Many crops can be harvested in one pass, and each plot is reseeded from its own drops.
Who it’s for: Survival players and server owners who run farms with wheat, carrots, potatoes, beetroots, nether wart or cocoa beans, and who want harvested plots to be replanted without extra steps.
How it compares
AutoSow is client and server, published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt across 1.12.2 – 26.3, and is not open source. Farm 3x3 is server required with an optional client, released under the MIT License and open source, for 1.18 – 26.3. Replanting Crops is server-side only and covers 1.16.5 – 26.3, so players join without it.

What the author says
Replanting Crops is a minimalistic mod which automatically replants crops harvested with seeds from drops. By default a hoe must be held for the replanting to occur, but this can be toggled in the config. By holding the sneak button, you can prevent the replanting as well. Version 4.0 adds support for modded crops…
