A Review of Plant Disease Prediction Methods for Agricultural Applications

Abstract

Due to the decrease in plant quality and productivity, plant diseases seem to be responsible for significant economic losses in the world. As a result, farmers nowadays consider plant disease prediction to be an important area of research. To help an accurate prediction of plant disease, numerous techniques have been detailed in the literature. To highlight the many issues with current approaches for problem-solving predictions, we will evaluate various literary works that are focused on plant disease prediction in the agricultural industry. Based on several variables, including different datasets, year of publication and journals, performance metrics, and other considerations, the analyses of various approaches are enhanced in this case, and include the advantages and disadvantages based on the analysis of the methods. Finally, the paper concludes by discussing future research areas and difficulties in improving prediction performance for the plant disease prediction techniques used in the growing agricultural process.
