Out of all the parts of plants, the leaf is the direct indicator of its health status, and hence applying various image processing approaches could benefit the process of yielding informative cases of plant health. At present, there are various approaches, e.g., feature extraction, segmentation, identification, the classification being evolved up with more dependencies being found in using machine learning; the studies show many contributions towards this challenge. However, it is not yet conclusive to understand the optimal approach. Hence, this paper highlights an explicit strength and weakness associated with the existing approaches existing imaging processing techniques to identify the disease condition from an input of plant leaves' image.

INTRODUCTION  \nWith the increasing population score, there is an increasing demand for quality nutrition from a higher grade of food quality. This can only be confirmed when the cultivation is done because a healthy atmosphere and crops offer higher quality grains. However, diseases in the plants are inevitable, and it offers potential degradation towards the quality of the grains. Therefore, there is a higher degree of concern towards the diseases that inflict plants resulting in minimal production and yield. Such infliction can occur in any plants, right from roots, stems, branches, buds, flowers and leaves. There could be multiple reasons for this viz. adverse climatic condition, degraded quality of soil, poor irrigation, inferior practices in farming and adoption of conventional methods. With the increasing technology usage towards agriculture and cultivation, there are more chances of higher and quality yield in plants [1]–[5] . Sensors can be deployed over the cultivation fields to extract various data associated with the plants [6], [7] . Sensors can capture the images of plants that can be transmitted to another end, where an image processing algorithm can be executed to find the real-time status of the plant’s health. It can be said that the majority of the diseases that have a negative impact on crop yield are highly visible, and this can be an identifier for image processing algorithms. Hence, an algorithm can be constructed based on formulated identifiers matching the specific information about the disease. A human can also assess such visual information in identifying the disease condition in plants. However, a human cannot monitor this abnormality for the crop field of a larger dimension. Therefore, thereis a need for an automated approach that can prevent human interaction from carrying out this task of identification. As most of the problems associated with the disease are visually seen; therefore, this  \ninformation can be checked autonomously by the machine itself using image processing. However, there are various challenges involved in this process. The first challenge is to perform extraction of features from many crops, and hence feature extraction is one essential operation [8] . There are various feature extrac","cbCaiixUoCtXW0NP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiixUoCtXW0NP","pdf",270112,1,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Diseases in plant leaves\n## Feature extraction and
