Abstract
Agriculture is the primary source of employment for over half of India's population, making it heavily dependent on this sector. Indian farmers encounter a plethora of challenges during their agricultural pursuits, which include but are not limited to droughts, pests, infertile land, lack of irrigation, and plant diseases. As per reliable reports, plant diseases and pests are accountable for crop losses amounting to 5000 crores annually in India, rendering them a significant apprehension for the farming community. Plant disease identification can be a cubersome task and this paper aims to develop a disease identification model for Tomato leaves using three different Machine Learning algorithms, namely Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). The primary goal is to evaluate and compare the performance of each algorithm for the identification of Tomato leaf diseases.
