Wet Farmland
by boluogiegie
Wet Farmland changes vanilla farmland so that hydrated soil stays wet for longer and takes longer to turn back into dirt.
What it does
A hydrated patch of farmland remains moist for a number of days that the config file sets, with 4 as the default, and only then begins to lose water. Crops above farmland can be removed without drops when the farmland hardens, and players and mobs can be kept from trampling it.
Every timing value and feature toggle is stored in a configuration file, so server owners can set how long farmland holds water and whether trampling protection is active. The mod changes only how vanilla farmland behaves and adds no blocks or items.
Wet Farmland is a server-side only mod, so players join without installing it. It is published for Forge on 1.20.1 and for NeoForge on 1.21.1, both as the single version 1.0.0 released on 2026-07-19. The source code is public and the mod is released under the MIT License.
Key features
Extended hydration
Hydrated farmland keeps its water for a longer period before the drying timer starts, and the length is configurable.
Delayed hardening
Dry farmland takes longer to revert to dirt, so fields stay usable through more of the growing season.
Crop removal on hardening
Crops above farmland that hardens are removed without dropping items, which can be turned off in the configuration.
Trampling protection
Players and mobs are prevented from trampling farmland, and this protection can be switched off.
