Plant Health Detection

ABSTRACT

Agriculture is a key source of livelihood. Indian agriculture consist of many crops and according to survey nearly 80% of population is depended on agriculture. Most of Indian farmers are doing manual cultivation. Farmers are not aware about what kind of crops might grow on their land. Plants are affected by heterogeneous diseases that will affect the production of agriculture and cause profitable loss. It also reduces both quality and mass of production. Leaves are important part of the plants and also more prone to diseases. Currently farmers are spraying pesticides to the plants but it affects, directly or indirectly on humans and various living organisms. To detect these plant diseases many fast and modern techniques need to be provided and used by the farmers. In this paper, we have made an android application that will detect the health of the plant by capturing picture of leaf and detecting diseases and providing proper amount of pesticide.

INTRODUCTION

Agriculture helps in reducing poverty. Almost 80% of world population is employed in agriculture. Work has been done toward accomplishing optimality in terms of production and quality of crops. Farming in India is done using the many traditional and modern ways. The fact that the majority of our farmers do not have access to appropriate knowledge which leads them to hazards damage. Farmers believe in agricultural techniques that are based on the predictions, and experience which at times leads to failure.Farmers must bear huge losses in crop cultivation and at times they end up committing suicide which is the serious issue for society. Since, disease detection in plants plays an important role in the agriculture field, as having a disease in plants are quite natural and it should be solve in organic manner. If proper care is not taken in this area then it can affect plants health and due to which product quality, quantity and market value is also affected. Plant diseases cause a periodic outbreak of diseases which leads to large-scale death of crops. Automatic detection of plant diseases anywhere with proper knowledge of implementation given to farmers is an important research topic as it may prove benefits in monitoring large fields of crops and provide it from damaging, and at a very early stage it detects the symptoms of diseases means when they appear on plant leaves and also give the appropriate pesticide with legitimate seller which have authority to sell that pesticides. Farmers and plant caretakers in nursery could be benefited a lot with an early disease detection application that can be used anywhere, in order to prevent their plants and let the human know what has to be done beforehand.

LITERATURE SURVEY

The following research related work are selected keeping in mind the traditional approach for the paper and In this section, various research paper have been discussed Wenjiang Huangetal developed the new spectral indices for identifying the winter wheat disease which are healthy or infected. They consider three different pests(Powdery mildew, yellow rust and aphids) in winter wheat for their study. The most and the least relevant wavelengths for different diseases were extracted using RELIEF-F algorithm which is used to extract the disease .The classification inaccuracies of these new indices for healthy and infected leaves with yellow rust and effected were 86.5%, 85.2%, 97.6% and 94.5% respectively [1].Enhanced images have high quality and clarity than the original image which is used to clearly identify the plant. Color images have primary colors red, green and blue which can clearly identify the image. It is difficult to implement the applications using RGB because of their range i.e. 0 to 255. Hence they convert the RGB images into the grey images that is useful for the classification. Then the histogram equalization which distributes the intensities of the images which is applied on the image of leafs. hence image processing is used for the classification of the healthy images and diseased images.

Sachin D. Khirade and A. B. Patil has developed a project on plant disease detection using image processing in this system they have detected the disease of the plant using image processing as the used different image processing technique and its classification of various disease is done by extracting its features .it uses Ann method to classify the disease in plant.it uses various type of algorithm such as back propagation algorithm,SVM etc by using this technique we can easily classify using image processing .

Prof. H.M. Deshmukh, Jadhav Sanjivani, Lohar Utkarsha, Bhagat Madhuri, Salunke Shubhangi developed the project of Plant Leaf Disease Identification System for Android as in this system Based on the analysis, grayscale images are easy to process and implement on the farm . They have better clarity and suited for analysis than RGB images used for images classification. Histogram equalization isused to enhance the contrast of the images and provides clear image to human eyes and they can classify clearly. So, these types of images will be used to analyse and diagnosis the plant leaves diseases and determines the diseases level of the plant leaves. Mobile phone has become available at the base level providing different social and economic benefit of the society. The aim of this proposal was to develop a user friendly automated system for the farmers that will help them in determining detection diseases of leaves without bringing an expert to the field.

The basic steps to implement image processing techniques to detect the leaf diseases are given in section . An overview of recently used image processing techniques is described in section .

Rameshkumar paper name is A Survey and Research Proposal of Plant Leaf Disease Diagnosis and Classification on Mobile Devices in this paper the mobile application is build using data mining, neural network and image processing is done.This paper is used to detect the disease by capturing the image and segment the images using image processing.As recognition of the plant disease and diagnosis is done using android application.

CONCLUSION

Nowadays with growing population we need the productivity of the agriculture to be increased to meet the increasing demands. Increase in demand also increases use of chemical pesticides without proper knowledge of the crop which led to damage to the environment and also peoples health. This project ultimately aims at reducing the amount of chemical pesticides that are used by the farmer. It also aims at helping the farmer to know more about crops by giving proper knowledge about plants, their diseases and also proper cure. As this android application will be used to recognize plant disease and it will also suggest the proper pesticides to be used for the particular plant. It analyzes the color features of the spots in plant leaf. The algorithm that we would be using helps in identifying the presence of diseases by observing the visual symptoms seen on the leaf of the plant and also the application is useful to display the nearby seller and their contacts

RESULT

Agriculture is important part of Indian economy. In this paper we have developed a system that would detect the disease and provide proper solution. Camera is used to capture the image of the leaf to detect disease present on the crop. It uses k-mean clustering algorithm to classify the leaf, segment it and to analyze it.
