    Abstract :

    Abstract— Indian Economy is highly dependent on productivity of agricultural crops/plants. So, there is the need to provide extreme attention to take care of plants/crops. Diseases are the natural factor that can cause some serious effects on plants which ultimately reduces productivity, quality and quantity of products. Manual detection of plant diseases just increases the human efforts as it is not easy to check each individual plant. Also the manual detection is not appropriate method. In this paper, we have presented the design of an autonomous approach for the detection of plant leaf diseases. The proposed method covers the steps of image processing technique. These image processing steps are image acquisition in RGB color value, image preprocessing using histogram equalization, image segmentation using k-means clustering, feature extraction with texture statistics, image classification using Support Vector Machine and final optimization using Particle Swarm Optimization method. So, overall design for plant leaf disease detection is presented here.
