Resources needed to make a hoe

Hoes have multiple tiers, and the more expensive the recipe, the better the benefits. In Minecraft, you can create wooden hoes, stone hoes, iron hoes, gold hoes, diamond hoes, or netherite hoes. Each of these recipes requires the following resources:

  • Wooden hoe : 2 wooden planks (optional), 2 sticks, and a work table.
  • Stone Hoe : 2 cobblestones, 2 cobblestone deep slates, 2 blackstone or 2 combined stone layer blocks, 2 sticks, and a crafting table.
  • Iron hoe : 2 iron ingots, 2 bars, 1 workbench
  • Golden Hoe : 2 gold ingots, 2 sticks, 1 crafting table
  • Diamond Hoe : 2 diamonds, 2 sticks, 1 workbench
  • Netherite hoe : 1 netherite ingot, 1 netherite upgrade, 1 diamond hoe, 1 smithing table

Of the listed materials, boards, sticks, and workbenches are the easiest to obtain, as they can be crafted solely from wooden logs. While stone layer blocks such as Cobblestone and Cobblestone Deep Slate can be found underground in the Overworld, Blackstone can only be found in the Nether Plane.

As for iron and gold ingots, you need to smelt the raw materials obtained by destroying the corresponding ores. Diamonds can be obtained by crushing diamond ore, so there is no need for smelting.

Next, netherite ingots are expensive items that can be crafted from gold ingots and netherite scraps. The Netherite Upgrade is a blacksmithing template that only appears inside some chests in Fortress Remnants structures.

Finally, the Minecraft blacksmith table is a utility block that can be easily crafted using iron ingots and plates.

Where can I find hoes in Minecraft?

Surprisingly, you can find hoes in several different places around the world. However, they can be found not only in loot chests, but also in suspicious sand and gravel blocks. So, get your sword and Minecraft brush ready and start exploring your next structure.

  • Wooden Hoe : Suspicious blocks in marine ruins and trail ruins
  • Diamond Hoe : Forest Mansion Chest
  • Enchanted Golden Hoe : Treasure Chest in the Ruined Portal
  • Damaged Enchanted Diamond Hoe : Ancient City Treasure Chest

Additionally, toolsmith villagers in Minecraft will sell you stone hoes and diamond hoes for 1 and 4 emeralds, respectively. In addition, these villagers may throw stone hoes at the player by the Java version of the village status effect protagonist.

How to repair a broken hoe in Minecraft

The final way to make a new hoe is to repair or combine broken hoe. Placing two unenchanted broken hoes on a crafting grid creates one hoe with durability equal to the sum of the two broken hoes. The resulting hoe also has an additional 5% durability. You can do the same thing with a whetstone.

However, if the hoe has enchantments applied to it, repairing it this way will remove those enchantments. Therefore, in order to keep all the enchantments on the resulting hoe, you will have to use an anvil in Minecraft, but this will cost more experience points.

Alternatively, a broken hoe can be repaired by combining it with the corresponding tiered item in the anvil (wooden plank, stone tiered block, iron ingot, gold ingot, diamond, or netherite ingot). This action repairs 25% of broken hoes and preserves all enchantments.
