When 1.17 Released I played on my world that was started a month ago, Afew days later I noticed that my crops and baby villagers took longer time to grow, when I am far away from them.

Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Working as Intended.
The report you have submitted is working as intended: That's how ticking area works. Crops etc just requires your character's presence.
Please note, that mechanics of the game may change between updates.
Things such as graphics, sounds, world creation, biomes, redstone, villagers, and animals may not work the same in current versions.
