The RCAI team developed a Deep learning based plant disease detection app. It has a simple
interface for the farmer to upload pictures of the leaf. Currently the system is capable of working
on 14 most common crops e.g. tomato , potato , grape etc. Among the 14 crops, the system is
able Identify 26 main kinds of diseases.Eg : Potato late Blight, Grape Black Esca etc. This
allows a farmer to react quickly and prevent further crop damage.
This app guarantees health and well-being of plants by accurate and timely detection of
diseases. A rapid and automated test ensures a good harvest and, consequently, good
economy. The accurate detection helps in flourishing the plant medicine industries in Pakistan
and a responsible production and consumption of resources. This app can also be used by
citizens in cities to take care of their plants and trees for a sustainable environment in the urban
areas. The RCAI is seeking partnerships and collaborators to further develop this project.
