Beetroot in Minecraft Bedrock Edition: All you need to know

Beetroot was added to Minecraft in the 1.9 Combat Update released in 2016. Players can find beetroot growing on farms in villages, which is the only way to get beetroot in Minecraft. Players can use a tool enchanted with Fortune to get more beetroot and beetroot seeds from harvesting.

After obtaining beetroot seeds, players can grow their own beetroot. Like other crops, all players need to do is plant beetroot seeds on farmland and wait for them to grow. Once you have beetroots, you can use them in the following ways:

1) Food source

Beetroot isn’t a decent food source, but it can come in handy during an emergency. Eating one beetroot restores 0.5 hunger points. Instead of eating beetroot directly, players can craft beetroot soup using six beetroots and a bowl. One beetroot soup restores three hunger points.

2) Trading with farmers

Trade beetroot

Players can sell beetroot to farmers and earn emeralds in Minecraft. In Bedrock Edition, a Novice-level farmer has a 25% chance to purchase 15 beetroots for one emerald from the player. Players can quickly lower the trade cost and farm emeralds by zombifying and curing the farmer multiple times.

3) Breed pigs

Players can use beetroot for breeding pigs in Minecraft. After feeding beetroot to two adult pigs, they will spawn a baby pig. Players can also use beetroot to lure pigs.

4) Craft red dye

Red dye is a common dye in Minecraft and can be crafted using multiple items. Players can use beetroot to make red dye.

Like other crops, beetroot is also a unique crop with various uses in Minecraft. Players can create a beetroot farm to profit off beetroots.
