There are several techniques that players can use to create an automatic sugarcane farm in Minecraft. The technique described below is great for players who are looking to conserve their resources.

To begin, players will need sand or dirt to plant the sugarcane. They are recommended to use two rows of dirt with an empty row in between them. A water pathway can then be placed in this empty row (seen above).

Many players use an observer and a piston for each sugarcane plant. However, this technique will only use one observer.

Every sugarcane plant should have one piston facing it. An observer should then be placed in such a way that it faces one of the plants.

When that plant grows, the observer will activate and send a redstone pulse to every piston, activating them in the process. Players will need to connect the observer to every piston with redstone dust for this to work.

The pistons will break the sugarcane plants if they have grown to a height of two. The pathway of water will then catch the sugarcane and send it into a hopper. This will transfer it to a chest for easy extraction.
