World generates less grass compared to Java Edition

Confirmed, this is a Java Parity feature for Bedrock

This may be a duplicate of [MCPE-19115]. Generally there is less grass in the bedrock so that the productivity is higher. Large amounts of grass can severely hinder productivity. However, since this could be a real parity problem. It is up to the mojang to decide.

Affects 1.18.2
Affects 1.18.10.22

Can confirm in 1.18.33 (and 1.19.10.21)

Alpha versions of Pocket Edition generates grass everywhere

I can confirm this happens since 0.15.0 (from 2016), and still happens in 1.21.31 (from 2024), so it's an 8 years old bug 😞

Confirmed in 1.21.44

I can confirm this has been fixed in 1.21.60.23, as world now generates more grass, like Java does. 

Thank you so much for fixing this! Now please fix MCPE-121708, MCPE-165424, MCPE-188463, MCPE-188479, MCPE-46176 and MCPE-7990 and I will play again daily  ; )

While the changes to grass distribution in 1.21.60.23 do look significantly better, Java still has way more grass. From what I've observed:

• Sunflowers generate less frequently in MCPE.

• Grass generates more spread out in MCPE .

• There is less tall grass in MCPE in general compared to Java.

• There are more dense clumps of grass in Java than MCPE

I hope the team takes the time over multiple previews to fine tune grass generation.
