How to Get Barley

Harvest from Fuling Villages

Barley Located in Fuling Villages

Barley can be obtained planted inside Fuling Villages located at the Plains biome.

Fuling Villages are high-level subregions within the Plains biome that are inhabited by Fulings, Fuling Shamans, and Fuling Berserkers. We recommend gearing up with at least an Iron gear before exploring these villages.

Plant Barley Yourself

You can also plant Barley yourself! You will need the Cultivator tool, some Barley and land in the Plains Biome to do so. With the Cultivator, you can prepar some land in the Plains Biome and set Barley into it to grow. Each Barley will yield 2 more Barley upong harvest! You can only grow them in the Plains Biome and no other biome.
