Your area should have at least 3 square blocks of empty space for each villager you want to breed. Villager occupations are now determined by any available workstation block nearby (such as a fletching table, or composter). Any new villagers will automatically be registered to any available workstation in the village and assigned an occupation based on that workstation. If you have a specific occupation you want your new villagers to fill, you may want to build the structure at least 48 blocks away from any nearby workstations to keep them from registering an occupation automatically. Baby villagers will be assigned a nearby workstation when they become adults. [2] X Research source [3] X Research source

Potatoes are fully matured when there is a full stalk of leaves growing out of the ground where the potatoes are planted. However, sometimes you get a poisonous potato, which isn’t useful for anything. Beetroot: Beetroot is also grown by farmer villagers. However, unlike potatoes and carrots, you cannot plant the beetroot itself to grow more beetroot.

Being willing to breed will not automatically make the villager seek out a mate. Two villagers that are willing to mate must be in close proximity. Trading with villagers will make them more willing to breed.
After they mate, the villagers are no longer willing and must be made willing again. [9] X Research source
