<![CDATA[Arecanut is one of the prominent commercial crops that are grown worldwide for traditional medicines, furniture, cosmetics, food, veterinary preparations, and textile industries. It experiences a variety of diseases during its existence, from the bottom to the tip. The conventional method for detection of diseases is through visual inspection and it is also necessary to have properly designed laboratories to check these harvests. It is a time consuming and tedious task to inspect these crops across wide acres of plantations. The proposed system has been developed that uses convolutional neural network (CNN) to identify and categorize diseases in arecanuts, trunks and leaves also suggesting effective preventative measures. Proprietary dataset consists of 1,100 photos of healthy and diseased arecas. The ratio between the train and test data is 80:20. Binary cross entropy is employed as the loss function for model construction, with accuracy serving as the metrics and Adam serving as the optimizing function. In identification and categorization of arecanut diseases, the suggested approach was shown to be efficient with 93.05% accuracy.]]>
