Automated color prediction of paddy crop leaf using image processing

In India a majority of the population in rural areas is working in the agriculture field for their livelihood. They not only have to struggle for the better yield against the natural disasters but also have to tackle the losses of the net output because of land fertilization specifications and unskilled labour too. In the event of inadequate utilities and resources, in the face of unpredictable crises, their gain opportunities and livelihood are proportionally and adversely affected. However in this era of technology, the scenario may get changed as the Information and Communication and related fields of technology are providing a great for such type of crisis handling. Here in this paper, the method which may be used to compare the crop leaf color with the leaf color chart (LCC), has been proposed for getting a detail about the requirement of plant, before enough to get the yield affected. By making use of image processing technology a simple and robust method for the color prediction of paddy crop plant has been discussed along with the mathematical modelling which may provide a great platform to the advisory bodies in the agriculture field for the atomization of the crop health problems and solutions.
