A Review: Detection of Infected Leaves Using
Image Processing Techniques
International Journal of Innovations in Engineering and Science, 2 (5):
30-32 (March 2017)Abstract
Horticulture is the very essential and
growing economic activity of all the times. Before
industrial revolution, the huge number of human
population depends only in agriculture. But now,
agriculture in India is facing a structural change which
leads to a critical situation. The one of the major
problem present in the agriculture is arising attacks of
pests in crops. Management of crops from early stage to
mature harvest stage in horticulture includes
identification and monitoring of plant diseases,
controlled irrigation and controlled use of fertilizers and
pesticides. Even if large number of remote sensing
applications are developed but ground surveillance is
still a problem. Due to absence of the experts and naked
eyes surveillance is not able to give proper diagnosis of
the crops many times. Hence farmers need a reliable
system which can detect the infected crops. Instead of
using complicated satellite solutions or getting help from
helpdesk which are available on m-services it‟s easy to
use agrobot to survey farms, detect the diseases and
automatically spraying of pesticides. The present study
has given priority to early detection and diagnosis of the
disease.
