---------------------------------------------------------------------***---------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract - The paper focuses on the need of innovative methods in agriculture for increasing the yield. Sustainable agriculture along with new technology is presented. The use of quad copter along with digital image processing techniques to detect plant diseases and anomalies is shown for decreasing human efforts and saving cost and time. Key Words: Quad copter, sustainable agriculture, crop diseases, anomalies
1.INTRODUCTION India is an agricultural country with agricultural produce being about sixteen percent (16%) of total GDP and ten percent (10%) of total exports. Agriculture depends on many factors like availability of water, pesticides and insecticides. There is a bad effect of unavailability of water that causes willowing of leaves and bad produce. Also due to insects the quality of produce is affected. Therefore if we can monitor all these factors affectively then we can get best possible harvest in limited supplies. This project focuses on the growing need of new and innovative methods to be applied to agriculture. the major problems in Indian Agriculture are inadequate use of manures and fertilizers, inadequate water supply and inadequate use of efficient farm equipment. The main problem is that even today, we use age old practices of farming and we are not open to new methods that could help the agricultural industry. 1.1 Objectives of project Objective of this project is to create the agriculture revolution across the globe. This project focuses on the use of low cost color sensors for monitoring leaf color of plant tissues growing in a modified micro propagation system . A cost effective productive and innovative method of precision agriculture which can help the farmers to achieve their target in a modern way and thus provide stable economy with the help of agriculture productivity.
