Farming in Minecraft refers to the process of obtaining resources in an efficient and fast way. There are three ways to farm resources in Minecraft: automatic, semi-automatic, and manual.
Compared to semi-automatic and manual, automatic farms produce a greater amount of items and yet require little to no effort. However, such farms can sometimes be challenging to build.
This article looks at some of the easiest to build automatic farms in Minecraft. These farms don't require many resources, and can be made by beginners too.
Five Minecraft automatic farms that newbies will find easy
#5 - Bamboo/sugarcane farm
Bamboo and sugarcane are two of the easiest plants to grow in Minecraft. Players can plant bamboo on different types of dirt and sand blocks, whereas they can produce sugarcane on similar blocks but which have a water block near them.
Using observers, players can detect when a bamboo/sugarcane has grown. In this farm, the Redstone signal from the observer activates the piston, which breaks bamboo/sugarcane.
#4 - Automatic chicken farm
In early games, a chicken farm can be an excellent source of food. This automatic farm produces cooked chicken and feathers.
It uses a dispenser to dispense lava on chickens to kill them. The drops from the chickens are collected in a hopper attached to a chest, which can be used by players for food.

#3 - Spawner-based XP farm
XP is a helpful resource in Minecraft. Players need experience points to use an enchanting table, enchant their items, rename name tags, and more.
Using a mob spawner, they can create a farm for infinite XP. It is well-known that zombie/skeleton spawners can be found inside dungeons, so setting up a mob spawner here will start spawning those mobs whenever they are nearby.
#2 - Wool farm
Using a wool farm, players can get tons of wool in no time. Using bed explosions, users can find ancient debris easily at a fast rate.
#1 - Zombie-less iron farm
YouTuber MineTheFab came up with an iron farm design that doesn't require a zombie to spawn iron golem, instead relying on villagers' natural behavior to do so.
Due to this, it is quite slow compared to other designs which use zombies. However, it is good enough for a beginner and pretty easy to build.
