Abstract :
Agricultural production quality and quantity can be enhanced using precision agriculture. In India, many plants used as medicine as well as their flowers for decoration and worship. Significant threats to production of such crops are affected by various diseases and hard to control. The fungus is one of the disorders which is commonly and mostly affects these plans. Symptoms of fungus on leaves are different as tan or different colored spots like yellow, brown with low to high infection intensity. The fungus produces chemicals which are harmful to plant growth as well as affects the human health [3]. The fungal disease causes plants to die prematurely and need to detect. That can avoid the distortion of these valuable plants and all its parts. The emergence of Digital Image Processing is helpful in precision agriculture. With the various processing of these plant images, it is possible to detect the plant disease. The research proposes the model to identify the fungus infection of Lotus Leaf.
