DEEP LEARNING FOR THE
IDENTIFICATION OF PLANT
DISEASE

2. ABSTRACT
Smart agriculture systems have become increasingly popular as a way to improve crop production and
enhance the efficiency of farming operations. However, a critical aspect of smart agriculture is the early
detection of plant diseases, which can lead to significant crop losses if left unaddressed. In this context, the
use of Deep Learning techniques and the Internet of Things (IoT) technology can play a significant role in the
identification of plant diseases. The proposed IOT-enabled smart agriculture system uses deep learning
algorithms to analyze plant images and identify diseases. The system consists of an IoT device that captures
images of the plants and sends them to a cloud-based deep learning model. The model uses the images to
identify the type of disease and sends the information back to the IoT device. The farmer can then take
appropriate action to treat the disease and prevent crop losses. The use of deep learning algorithms provides
several advantages over traditional plant disease identification methods. Firstly, the algorithms can accurately
identify plant diseases, even when the symptoms are not clearly visible. Secondly, the system can process
large amounts of data quickly, making it an efficient method for disease identification. Lastly, the use of IoT
technology enables the farmer to monitor the crops remotely, reducing the need for physical inspection. Its
implementation will improve the efficiency of farming operations and help farmers reduce crop losses. With
the increasing use of technology in agriculture, the IOT-enabled smart agriculture system is expected to
become an essential tool for farmers in the near future.

• Soil Moisture Sensor
• Node MCU
COMPONENTS:

5. The DHT11 is a basic digital temperature and
humidity sensor with a modest price tag. It measures
the ambient air with a capacitive humidity sensor and
a thermistor and outputs a digital signal on the data
pin. It is simple to use, but data collection takes
careful scheduling.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY SENSOR (DHT11)

6. A soil moisture sensor is a device used to determine the
volumetric water content of soil. The sensor uses other soil
indirectly detect volumetric water content without removing
moisture. Because environmental factors like as soil type,
temperature, and conductivity might affect the outcome, it must
be calibrated. properties like as electrical resistance or
conductance, dielectric constant, and interaction with other
neutrons to indirectly detect volumetric water content without
removing moisture. Because environmental factors like as soil
type, temperature, and conductivity might affect the outcome, it
must be calibrated.

7. These sensors collect data such as temperature, humidity,
and moisture level from the farms and send it to the Node
MCU, where the data is stored (ESP8266). Node MCU is
a Lua based open-source firmware and development
board designed specifically for IoT applications. It
consists of firmware that runs on Espressif Systems'
ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC and hardware that is based on the
ESP-12 module. The values from the sensors are kept in
the Node MCU's connection to the IoT analytics platform
service ThingSpeak.

8. PROPOSED METHODOLOGY:
• Data Collection: A network of IoT devices, such as sensors and cameras, are strategically placed in the
agricultural field to gather data on various environmental and plant factors, including temperature,
humidity, soil moisture, leaf color, texture, and growth patterns.
• Data Transfer: The collected data is transmitted to a central system using the IoT network, ensuring
real-time monitoring of the crops.
• Data Preparation: The received data undergoes extensive pre-processing, including cleaning,
normalizing, and formatting, to make it suitable for analysis by the Deep Learning algorithms.
• Deep Learning Model Development: A Deep Learning model is developed and trained using large
datasets of annotated images of plant diseases and anomalies. The model is designed to recognize
patterns and relationships in the data that can indicate the presence of plant diseases.
• Model Deployment: The trained model is deployed in the central system, allowing it to process the
incoming data from the IoT devices in real-time.
• Disease Identification: The model analyzes the incoming data and identifies any potential plant
diseases based on the patterns it has learned during the training phase.
• Actionable Insights: The system provides farmers with actionable insights and recommendations,
including early warnings of plant diseases, recommended remediation measures, and suggestions for
preventive measures.
