Problem
Farmers and agribusinesses face challenges in the early detection and identification of plant pests and diseases, which can lead to significant crop losses and economic impact. Traditional methods for pest and disease identification often rely on manual inspection, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to errors. The lack of timely and accurate information hinders effective intervention and preventative measures.
