Abstract

This paper delves into the innovative utilization of computer technology as a means to assist farmers in the critical task of identifying and managing diseased cotton plants. The study encompasses a comprehensive data collection effort, comprising a diverse array of images portraying various states of cotton plant health, ranging from robustly healthy specimens to those afflicted with various diseases. Leveraging sophisticated machine learning methodologies, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), a meticulously crafted computational model was trained to discern subtle visual cues indicative of plant health or disease within the collected dataset. Special emphasis was placed on ensuring the model's adaptability to a wide spectrum of environmental conditions, encompassing variations in lighting, angles, and background clutter commonly encountered in real-world agricultural settings. Rigorous evaluation and validation procedures were employed to assess the model's performance, revealing commendable levels of accuracy and reliability in its ability to classify cotton plants with precision.
