Farmers are simple professional villagers who work in the village's farm if they naturally spawn in the structure. A regular villager can also be employed as a farmer using a composter. There is a strong chance that the farmer's first trade can be 22 carrots for one emerald. This is a great trade since players can grow lots of carrots after obtaining them from a village and then selling them to the farmer.

Moreover, if players create a carrot farm using several farmers, they can work on the farm and grow carrots faster. The same carrots can then be sold to them for one emerald. This way, players can create an emerald farm using a carrot farm.

Since Minecraft is a survival game, players usually tend to focus on their protection against all kinds of dangers. While armor can offer protection, it can further be strengthened using protection enchantments. Protection enchantment's highest level is four, which massively increases the damage protection of each armor set. Librarians can offer protection level 4 enchantment for a certain amount of emeralds.

Though players can also get the power-up from an enchanting table, there is no guarantee that the table will offer players the topmost enchantment. Hence, trading with a librarian to get one is a better method.
