Disease Detection and Diagnosis of Agricultural Plant Leaf Using Machine Learning

Agriculture and allied activities still continue to be one of the major occupations in world. Various modern methods and inventions have been incorporated to make it more efficient and successful. One of the main problems the farmers are facing are plant diseases. This can affect the entire yield of a season, so to tackle that problem we are proposing a ResNet based Convolutional neural network model which can detect the various disease in plants in early stage itself. For this purpose, ‘New plant village’ dataset to train and test the model. The proposed Resnet based approach has achieved high accuracy in detecting diseases as well as suggesting a proper solution and possible causes for a plant disease.
