Strawberry Plant's Health Detection for Organic Farming Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

Abstract

Demand for agricultural produce has drastically increased in recent years. Meeting these demands require expansion of agricultural area and organic farming. Lack of monitoring arises in such expansive areas. Which can lead to overlooking infected plants. Failing in spotting these infected plants can lead to irreversible damage to the plant and this leading to yield loss. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV's)are actively being used to tackle large scale agricultural problems. In this paper, we are equipping UAV's with system that not only identifies the healthy strawberry plants and infected strawberry plants but also indicates the possible disease the strawberry plants might have. With this proposed methodology, farmer can efficiently locate and handle the treatment of the infected strawberry plants
