Benefits Of Using A Leaf Disease Detection Using Image Processing

Water is one of the most precious resources, which support the life of almost everything in the world. Indeed, the world is covered by 75% water, but most of this water is not suitable for human consumption or use. On the same note, the world has been increasing its consumption of water due to the increasing population, leading to increased demands. The increased water consumption, which has been a result of high population, is worrying because the matter may lead to massive water shortages in the future.

Water, is a very valuable and necessary resource that, must be managed more carefully. Quantity-wise it is endless; all around the world there are many bodies of water. Ground sources, such as aquifers, as well as surface water, including oceans, seas, rivers, lakes, ponds, and streams. Because of its endlessness it becomes more difficult to manage it all. Clean water that is readily available, for developed and devolving nations alike, is a challenge. There are many factors that play into what can access water sources, and pollute it. Pollution of water is a worldwide problem that occurs too frequently. There are various contributors to water pollution including agriculture, industry, waste management, as well as naturally occurring

There are multiple reasons why the practice of flooding crop furrows continues. The practice of flooding crop furrows produces two to three harvests per year with a higher crop yield. Sprinklers and drop system technology have been much

Mohammed El-Helly et al. [8] proposed an approach for integrating image analysis technique into diagnostic expert system. A diagnostic model was used to manage cucumber crop. According to this approach, an expert system finds out the diseases of user observation. In order to diagnose a disorder from a leaf image, five image processing phases are used: image acquisition, enhancement, and segmentation, feature extraction and classification. Images were captured using a high resolution color camera and auto focus illumination light. Firstly they transformed the defected RGB image to the HSI color space then analyzed the histogram intensity channel then increased the contrast of the image. Fuzzy C Means (FCM) segmentation is used in this

Water issues are big concern for every living thing on the planet. As the worlds population grows and the demand of products increase, industries are growing too. This demand on the worlds recourses especially water is becoming an issue. Around two percent of the worlds water is drinkable with much being locked up in glaciers. Moving water to places in need is a common practice, but this dose not make more drinking water. While salt water is easily accessible we can not consume it. The water must be processed with the salt being removed.

In recent years overconsumption of water has drained the earth’s river basins faster than rain can replenish them. An average person’s daily water footprint i.e. the total amount of water consumed to support their lifestyle is 3,800 liters. Most of this consumption relates to the crops that are farmed to provide us with food and clothing. Irrigation consumes an enormous amount of water, and the effects of this are seen at every stage in the food chain. For example 98 percent of the water footprint created by raising beef cattle comes from growing the grain that feeds the cows during their lifetimes. For each kilogram of steak produced, we consume 15,415 liters of water. That’s enough drinking water to last one person nearly 17 years. Growing water footprint is partly a result of our increasing population; but it is also compounded by the fact that irrigation systems, especially in the developing world, are often extremely inefficient. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization states that even a good irrigation scheme is only 50-60 percent efficient. Poor irrigation systems can result in the vast majority of the water being lost to evaporation, seepage and other problems before it reaches the fields. Moreover, once it gets there, if farmers choose to irrigate at the wrong time for example, just before it rains, the water will be wasted and the crops may even be damaged.

In the present world, water has become a highly contested resource. It is no secret that we are consuming much more water than humanity originally intended. Consumerism is such a prevalent factor in today 's society, which is why multi-billion dollar companies thrive at economic development. As a global population we are shackled by society, forced to conform to the materialistic viewpoints that were adapted from prior generations. The trend will inevitably continue if we do not begin to challenge our society, as well as economy. Water is one of the only resources that humanity is

Farmers over-irrigate and under irrigate their produce causing famines and severe soil erosion. As the nation and the world have sunk into a global water crisis, every drop counts. Day by day, the evaporation rate increases. Farmers can’t tell the maximum and minimum amounts of water in their land. That’s where our innovation comes into play.

Water is becoming a precious commodity around the world. “Throughout to world, water is recognized as the most fundamental and indispensable of all natural resources and it is clear that neither social and economic development, nor environmental diversity, can be sustained without water” (Ashton 1). Water is becoming scarce throughout the world. “Water scarcity is when an individual does not have access to safe affordable water to satisfy her or his needs for drinking, washing or their livelihoods…”(Rijsberman 1).

In 1900, around 500km³ of water was used by the agriculture sector worldwide. The figures for industrial and domestic water consumption stood at around one-fifth of that amount. By 2000, global water use for agriculture had increased to around 3000km³, industrial water use had risen to just under half that amount, and domestic consumption had

In this regard, activities such as minimum tillage, crop rotation, and crop residue retention are some of the farming practices that serve to maintain water quality. Minimum tillage, for example, helps in ensuring least disturbance to the soil, implying that the soil particles remain intact and not exposed to agents of soil erosion such as wind and water. Crop residue retention and crop rotation practices on the other hand maintain the soil structure, and thus ensure that the soil is less susceptible to soil erosion, implying that pollution on water sources through soil erosion is significantly hampered (Thierfelder & Wall,

Water is the most important substance in the universe today, without it people would not be able to continue existence. Water covers most part of our planet, only a small number of the world’s water is fresh water. People need freshwater to drink, bath, irrigate our farm fields, it is incredibly rare. Everyone has the right to require access to enough clean water. Using and drinking clean, safe water is a human right. But the shortage of water resources has become one of the main problems of the 21st century in many societies and the world. Although there is no global water resource shortage happening, but more and more regions are affected by long-term water

Water is an essential compound for survival. It is vital because every organism depends on it for various reasons. As humans, we depend on it for health, hygiene, and to nourish the environment. However, the misuse of water has profoundly affected water supply in many states. An immense amount of drinking water is wasted daily. Since more than half of the water supply is used for agriculture, an excessive amount of drinking water is wasted on crops. There is a misuse of water in agriculture because farmers are not educated about sustainable farming, which is damaging the freshwater ecosystems, drying bodies of water, and causing cities to face a shrinkage in water supply.

By the year 2050, the world’s population is expected to reach 9.8 billion people. To sustain this enormous population, it is absolutely critical to optimize production of food and water usage. Furthermore, as extreme weather such as droughts and floods become more and more frequent due to climate change, conserving water and increasing food production will become invaluable to sustaining human life.

Due to a rapid increase in population the demand for water is rising higher every year. A lack of natural freshwater forces scientists and businesses to create the most productive and efficient
