Overview
Husbandry is a root advancement in the Husbandry tab of Minecraft's advancement system, carrying the in-game description "The world is full of friends and food." As the root of the Husbandry tab, it sits at the very top of this branch and is what every other Husbandry advancement ultimately descends from.
