AI-Driven Crop Disease Prediction and Management System

The agricultural sector faces critical challenges due to plant diseases, leading to reduced crop yields, economic losses, and food insecurity. Traditional plant disease detection methods are based on manual inspection, which is time consuming, subjec- tive, and prone to errors. This research presents an AI-powered system that utilizes deep learning, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), for efficient disease identification. The model processes plant leaf images to extract key features, classify diseases, and provide real-time predictions. Integrated with a web-based application, the system allows farmers to upload images and receive instant diagnostic feedback and treatment recommendations. By automating the disease detection process, this system improves decision-making, reduces the reliance on ex- perts, and promotes sustainable farming practices. The proposed approach represents a significant advancement in smart farming, improving early disease identification, and reducing excessive use of pesticides.
