Abstract: Agriculture supports living beings and nature in many ways, such as food and habitat. All humans as well as animals
depend on the agriculture sector for their basic needs of food and nutrients. Thus, the importance of agriculture and the ways it
can be improved further should be taken into account. While discussing agriculture, the topic of related diseases is not far
behind. Crop disease is the most common threat that falls upon agricultural harvest. To address the issue at hand, firstly,
farmers must figure out the situation on time. Then only the chance of saving the crops exists. We are aware of how the various
types of diseases affect the yield badly and in turn affect the quantity. In this paper, we will detect such diseases and identify
them. We will use image processing, Machine Learning Algorithms, and sample datasets to get the resulting detection.
Keywords: Machine Learning, Plant Disease, Image Processing
I. INTRODUCTION
In India, where 80% of the population is dependent on agriculture, agribusiness has emerged as a key driver of economic
development. Ranchers determine the best harvest based on the soil type, climate, local condition, and economic value. Most often,
farmers who cannot repay bank loans they took out for farming purposes commit suicide as a result of production losses. We've seen
that the climate is constantly changing today, which harms the crops and pushes farmers into debt and suicide. When various
mathematical or statistical techniques are applied to data, these risks can be reduced, and using these techniques, we can inform the
farmer about plant diseases affecting his agricultural land.
Due to governmental shortcomings, the agricultural industry started looking for new ways to increase food production. Researchers
are working to create innovative, strong, and special technologies that can produce outcomes with high efficacy. A large harvest can
be produced using a variety of techniques in the agricultural sector.Based on the data gathered, farmers using the precision agricultu
re technique can learn how to increase farm yield.
This methodology uses machine learning to classify plant diseases and image processing to detect them. Supervised learning and
unsupervised learning are the two main classifications of machine learning. The label values in the supervised learning method are
known. Regression and classification are two examples of supervised learning techniques. The label values in the unsupervised
learning approach are unknown. Building a model that can be used to categorize healthy and unhealthy harvest leaves and, if the
crop has any disease, predict which disease it is, is the primary goal of this research.

There are two different approaches to dealing with the classification of plant diseases. The first is "training from the ground up," and
the second is "transfer learning." When working with small datasets for deep learning tasks, the transfer learning method is used,
and when working with sufficient datasets, the training from the scratch method. This research paper discusses the convolution
neural network technique and the conventional technique for image processing.
III. METHODOLOGY
Leaf diseases can be identified by observing leaf of plants. Image processing is performed on the images of leaves from the dataset.
The image processing technique involves five basic steps and a data flow diagram is shown below in Fig 1.
1) Image Acquisition: This dataset contains high-quality RGB (red, green, and blue) leaf images that include healthy leaf images
and diseased leaf images. The first stage of the leaf disease identification and classification system is loading the database for
use in the Leaf Dataset
2) Image Pre-processing: The second stage of the leaf disease detection and classification system is pre-processing. This involves
some techniques like image resizing, image smoothing, image enhancement, etc. In this stage, noisy and inconsistent data is
removed from the dataset to extract useful information.
3) Image Segmentation: Images are partitioned into RGB (red, green, blue), HSV (hue, saturation, value), and LAB (luminosity,
green/red, blue/yellow) stages. This is the third stage of the leaf illness identification and classification framework.
4) Feature Extraction in Image: In-leaf disease classification uses features like color, texture, morphology, edges, etc. This
approach has tracked down that morphological outcomes give preferable outcomes over different features. It tends to be
identifying the infected leaf of the image that is most important.
5) Detection and Classification of Plant Disease: The fifth stage of the leaf disease recognition and classification system is the
classification technique. This stage performs any of the machine learning techniques for classifying the various diseases in
leaves. This is the final outcome stage of our proposed system. In this stage, users can identify and characterize leaf diseases.

V. CONCLUSION
The paper mainly focuses on leaf disease detection in various plants. We have used machine learning techniques to train the dataset
and also used image processing for the detection and classification of images of both healthy and unhealthy leaves. Thus, various
diseases are identified successfully as a result of the proposed system.
