    What about wheat? There's no tool that makes wheat farming easier. If cactus farming isn't feasible due to lag then maybe consider revamping wheat farming.

    If cacti don't cause too much lag then +1

    Wheat farming is heavily affected by fly and mcmmo. To the point where having fly, mcmmobonusplus3 and 1k herbalism makes it as good as melonfarming.

    Wait, wasn't axe the preferred tool for cacti?
    Anyway, if it can be done without introducing lag*, I'm all for it.

    *if I'm not mistaken, the cactus block is computationally demanding because it has to continuously check whether there's nearby entities to harm, in the same way as redstone circuitry continuously checks whether there's nearby blocks to activate (but please correct me if I'm wrong)

    No, it's the other way around, entities check for harmful things.

    Ok, then I was mistaken. But was I at least slightly right when saying that cactus farm was outlawed not just for auto-farm but also because it caused major lag? (if so, I'm curious about how it did create lag and why it won't be the case now) I kind of recall reading something like that some time ago

    Major lag from the dropped items, yeah. People made farms that dropped thousands of cactus every second. That shit lags. This is only possible with autofarms. Without autofarms it's about as laggy as wheat or sugarcane. (negligible)

    Well that's not true builders could still farm wheat and sugarcane without needing special tools

    slowly, without much profit. To make decent profit with wheat you need fly, high mcmmo, mcmmobonusplus and a big farm specially made for it. It's not as simple as cactus. Cactus will never get nerfed because someone figured out how to farm it quicker, because you farm it with your fists.

    Seems good for cactus to be as a profitable farming crop.
