Beetroot seeds are a crop item obtained by harvesting fully grown beetroot crops, breaking grass, or looting chests in villages and End cities. They are used to grow beetroot when planted on tilled farmland.
Beetroot seeds go through four growth stages before becoming fully mature. Applying bone meal speeds up the process, allowing for quicker harvesting. Fully grown beetroot crops drop one beetroot and up to four beetroot seeds, making them a renewable crop.
Beetroot seeds can also be used to breed and lure chickens or trade with novice-level farmer villagers for emeralds. Due to their use in farming and trading, they are a valuable resource for food production and emerald collection.
