Identification and Detection of Sugarcane Crop Disease Using Image Processing

Abstract

Sugarcane is a renewable, natural agriculture resource and it is most important crop of India. Sugarcane Crop is a perennial crop which results into less labour and high yields. Sugarcane crop is one of the main pillar for Indian economy. Nowadays there are different diseases which affecting the sugarcane plants in diverse areas. So In this work we are going to use machine learning algorithms and image processing for sugarcane leaf disease detection. Machine learning is a trending area where the technological benefits can be imparted to the agriculture field also. In this we are going to use PCA algorithm which is one of the unsupervised machine learning algorithms. The dataset consists of 3 types of diseases. Total dataset is divided into various proportions of training and testing sets. There are various detection and classification techniques which are done using various algorithms at each stage but in PCA algorithm detection and classification is done by same algorithm which is PCA. The diseases of sugarcane consider in this project are red rot, smut, wilt.
