Abstract
Wheat is a vital crop globally, playing a crucial role in ensuring food security. Any damage to wheat crops, particularly from diseases like wheat rust, can exacerbate the global food crisis. Wheat rust, along with other crop diseases, poses a serious threat to agricultural sustainability and food supply. Technological approaches to detect crop health can significantly enhance disease prevention compared to traditional manual methods. This study focuses on detecting wheat rust diseases, specifically wheat leaf rust, stem rust, and yellow rust, all of which vary in their impact on crops. By employing image analysis of wheat plants, the research aims to accurately distinguish between healthy crops and those affected by rust diseases. The experiments consider multiple variables, such as learning rate, dropout, and train-test split ratio, reflecting a comprehensive research approach. The model achieved an impressive 99.64% accuracy in detecting wheat rust, highlighting its potential for early disease detection and prevention.
