  • Farmers will trade emeralds for wheat, potatoes, carrots, and beetroot.
  • Iron can be traded for emeralds with a vager who has a grindstone or a smithing table.
  • String can be traded with a Fletcher or fisherman, and string can be duplicated for infinite emeralds.

Diamond Tools and Armor:

If you’re looking to spend your emeralds, diamond tools and armor are the best options. To obtain diamond armor, you’ll need an armorer villager, and for diamond tools, you’ll need a toolsmith villager. Enchanted options are available as well.

Other Powerful Trades:

Aside from diamond trades, there are many other powerful trades to explore. The Mason villager offers quartz blocks and pillars, which are useful for building and redstone components. The lectern-wielding villager provides enchanted books, and the cleric trades lapis lazuli. There are also tricks to obtain free emeralds by trading glass bottles and bricks.
