There are tons of farms that Minecraft players like to build. Automating the game as much as possible frees them up to do the other activities in the game that can't be automated. There are a wide variety of farms in Minecraft, from XP farms to mob farms.

Mining iron, gold and copper will give players the raw form, which is relatively useless. Smelting turns them into valuable resources, but it takes time. However, with hoppers, chests and furnaces, Minecraft players can simply stick the raw items in one end and go about their business while it automatically smelts all of them.The Metric Jester 🇨🇦@MetricJesterSmelting XP Farm for Minecraft 1.13 Just stand on the pressure plate and take out an item to get your Furnace stored XP.1:43 AM · Jul 29, 20182Smelting XP Farm for Minecraft 1.13 Just stand on the pressure plate and take out an item to get your Furnace stored XP. https://t.co/uUHqMWPgLc4) Wool farmWool farms can be made with one sheep, a dispenser, shears and a one block area.
