# Tea Sickness Classification

This dataset contains real field images of tea leaves affected by various diseases, collected in tea gardens across Anhui Province, China. Images were captured using a handheld iPhone 14 Pro Max with RGB imaging during October 2023, providing practical examples for agricultural disease detection research. The dataset contains 885 images across 8 classes: Anthracnose, algal leaf, bird eye spot, brown blight, gray light, healthy, red leaf spot, white spot.  
Images per class:
- Anthracnose: 100
- algal leaf: 113
- bird eye spot: 100
- brown blight: 113
- gray light: 100
- healthy: 74
- red leaf spot: 143
- white spot: 142

This dataset is indexed on https://project-agml.github.io/ as part of the AgML python library.
