Minecraft wiki entry for Survival_with_no_enabled_data_packs, associated text: Finding a villager is a hard task to do, as villages within a typical world are usually hundreds of blocks apart from each other, and many villages have not even a single farmer villager. Find a desert, savanna, or plains biome and look for villages here, as these are the only biomes that spawn villages. When you come upon a village, if the village has a farm or multiple, harvest all the crops in the farm of the village, as even though there may not be a farmer villager in the village, it is still important to gather as much crops such that when you do finally encounter said farmer villager you can finally trade your crops for emeralds. The crops also provide an alternative source of food for you instead of the apples derived from cutting down trees. However, do not destroy the farmland, as you would have no way of restoring the farmland once destroyed, because of the fact that it is impossible to acquire a hoe with data packs disabled.
