A potato is a food item obtained from potato crops that can be used to plant them, consumed raw or cooked to make baked potatoes.

Potato crops are planted in farmland and used to grow potatoes and, rarely, poisonous potatoes.

Obtaining

Breaking

Fully grown potato crops drop 2 to 5 potatoes (3 ⁵⁄₇ per crop harvested on average) and have a 2% chance of dropping an additional poisonous potato. Potato yield can be increased using a tool enchanted with Fortune, with Fortune III harvesting an average of 5 ³⁄₇ potatoes. Bone meal can be used to mature the potato to its last stage of growth.

The first two potatoes always drop, and then three more attempts are made to drop a potato with a success rate of 57.14286% to yield the extra 0–3 drops. Each level of Fortune enchantment increases the number of attempts by one.

Natural generation

Village farm plots have a chance of being planted with potatoes. The exact chance depends on the style of the village:

Village style	Chance
Snowy	70%
Plains	15%
Taiga	10%

Abandoned camps also have a chance to have potatoes in some variants.

Mob loot

Zombies, husks, and zombie villagers have a 2.5% (¹⁄₄₀) chance of dropping either an iron ingot, carrot, or potato when killed by a player or tamed wolf. This is increased by 1% (¹⁄₁₀₀) per level of looting. This gives potatoes the following chances of dropping:

¹⁄₁₂₀ (about 0.83%)
⁷⁄₆₀₀ (about 1.17%) with Looting I
⁹⁄₆₀₀ (1.50%) with Looting II
¹¹⁄₆₀₀ (about 1.83%) with Looting III

In Java Edition, when killed with fire, a zombie drops a baked potato instead.

Usage

Farming

When farmed, potatoes go through 8 stages of growth. However, there are four apparent stages because the texture only changes upon reaching stages 1, 3, 5, and 8 with stage 8 being the final, mature appearance.

Potatoes require a light level of 8 or greater to plant‌^{[Java Edition only]} and 9 or greater to grow. In Bedrock Edition they can be planted at any light level, but need an internal light level of 9 to grow. Crops grow faster if the farmland they are planted in is hydrated. Using bone meal on crops also increases the speed of growth by randomly increasing their growth stage by 2 to 5.

Crops break if pushed by a piston or if their supporting farmland breaks or turns to dirt (e.g. by being trampled), dropping their usual drops.

Food

To eat a potato, press and hold use while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating a potato restores 1 () hunger and 0.6 saturation.

Breeding

Pigs follow and can be bred by a player holding a potato.

Villagers can pick up potato items to become willing, which allow them to breed. Villagers require 12 potatoes to become willing.
