AgentCrop, developed within Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub, is a free AI tool for crop disease detection and plant identification.
It uses computer vision AI models to analyze images you upload and provides accurate results about crop/plant diseases and potential treatments.
For example, I noticed unusual spots on my prized cyclamen leaves. Simply capture an image and upload it to AgentCrop. The AI identified the plant species and detected the likely culprit – in this case, a mite infestation.
But it doesn’t stop there. AgentCrop provides a detailed list of symptoms associated with mite infestation, such as distorted leaves, brown spots, stunted growth, and unopened flowers.
Most importantly, AgentCrop provides you with actionable treatment advice. For the cyclamen example, it suggests isolating the infected plant, pruning affected areas, applying a suitable miticide, increasing humidity, and maintaining good hygiene. This approach helps prevent the spread of the infestation and promotes plant health.
Beyond disease detection, AgentCrop is also a plant identification tool. By selecting the “Identification” tab and uploading an image, you can instantly identify the plant species.
In our cyclamen example, AgentCrop provides basic information about the plant, including its origin, care preferences, and common uses. This feature can be helpful for both novice gardeners and seasoned plant enthusiasts.
How to use it:
1. Visit the AgentCrop website or download the mobile app from Google Play.
2. Upload a photo of your plant or crop. File size limit is 50 MB. Use PNG or JPG/JPEG formats. Rest assured, AgentCrop automatically clears images after detection to protect your privacy.
3. You may enter the name of your crop or plant, although this step is optional as Agentcrop can automatically identify it from the image.
4. Click ‘Detect Now’ to initiate the analysis. Within seconds, the AI will identify the crop or plant species and diagnose any diseases.
5. For solely identifying a plant, choose the “Identification” tab, upload your image, and receive instant identification and basic plant information.
