Abstract:
The economy of Bangladesh is mainly Agricultural. Agriculture is the largest sector in
Bangladesh, comprising almost 80% of people’s involvement by contributing 21-23% of
the GDP. From the beginning of the 21st century, Bangladesh wants to become digital. A
lot of sectors has already been digitized. But our Agricultural sector is not digitized so
much. So our aim is to contribute our effort to digitize Bangladesh Agriculture sector
through our research project. In this project, our goal is to find an easier and smarter way
to identify the common diseases of plants using smartphones with minimum camera
capability. This could be the best way to take necessary steps to prevent further damages
to the plants as it will suggest required solutions to the identified diseases. Also there are
no remote way to communicate among the farmers or the agricultural experts. That’s why
we intend to build a community with both farmers and experts, where they can share their
problems and solution. Our objective is to provide supports to the users as much as
possible. As this project is based on our agricultural sector, most of our users will be
farmers. So it has to be as simpler as it could be that anyone with minimum knowledge of
smartphones can use it.
