I need ideas for some farms to build in my Xbox survival world and some links to a tutorial would be awesome! Thank!
In a survival world it's best to build efficient farms. Pick what crops you want and find the most efficient growth set up for them to yield you the most harvest.
i also like farms. there are many you can fully automate, but there are some you cannot. i don't have links (just google any you are interested in) but here are a few i usually make sure to build..
-cactus autofarms are easy
-sugarcane autofarms with pistons are pretty easy
-cocoa bean semi-auto farms with pistons
-watermelon/pumpkin autofarm with pistons
-potato/carrot autofarms with villagers
-egg autofarms are easy to build (just need chickens and hoppers, and you can make it into an automatic chicken cooker as well)
-i'm sure there is a way to make a wheat farm full-auto, but i've found it too difficult to mess with over and over again so i just make semi-auto wheat farms with pistons and water.
-semi-auto nether wart farms with pistons
-automatic slime farm with water currents
-automatic darkfall mob grinders (there are many types of aggro mob grinders)
-automatic gold farms with mega portals and pistons/redstone timers (my favorite)
-automatic guardian farm with no redstone, just hoppers
-idk about automatic mushroom farms i stopped making them when they nerfed mushroom spreading but i'm sure someone has found a way to by now
-automatic witch farms with pistons
-there's even a highly complex full-auto obsidian farm updated for 1.9+ using wither boss
-oh and i can't believe i forgot this but a full-auto iron golem farm is essential (idk if there are any that work past 1.8.9 though). i even made the iron trench on one of my worlds and it is insane, look it up on youtube (but i think it's outdated on 1.9+)
i'm sure i'm forgetting some but that's all i got off the top of my head.

"Endermen make terrible friends. Tiny slime is my new BFF"
I believe a farmer villager with his inventory full of seeds will harvest wheat but can't pick it up so it can be sucked up by a hopper minecart under the farm.
The same method ought to work with beetroots as well.
There are my favorites for trading with villagers, not sure they will work on XBOX, read comments under videos
Wheat:
Potato and carrot:
Pumpking and Melon:
They are 100% afk but will take some time to build. Also you will need "clear" villagers (with clear inventory) for the first two. There is a simple way to clear village inv before sending them to the farm: cure 2 zombie villagers, give them ONLY potato or ONLY carrot for breeding, before sending villgers (ONLY in brown robe) to the farm - let em plant all crops from their inventory on the temporary farmlands.
Set up villager AI farms at least 100 blocks (for sure) from any types of villagers/breeder/wooden doors.

Just testing.
