MINIPROJECT

🚀 Introduction

Plant diseases cause significant losses in agricultural productivity, with farmers often facing challenges in diagnosing issues accurately and on time. Misdiagnosis or delayed treatment leads to crop failure, economic setbacks, and reduced food security.

Key Challenges:

Difficulty in identifying plant diseases without expert knowledge. Limited access to agricultural experts and resources, especially in rural areas. Overuse or misuse of pesticides due to improper diagnosis. Time-consuming and ineffective traditional methods of disease identification.
