AI-Powered Crop Disease Detection for African Farmers
π― What is FarmEyes?

- Detect the disease using computer vision (YOLOv11)
- Diagnose the condition with severity assessment
- Translate all information to your preferred language
- Chat with an AI assistant for follow-up questions

π About
FarmEyes was built for the Awarri Developer Challenge 2025 to address the critical need for accessible agricultural AI in Africa.
The Problem:
- 20-80% crop losses annually due to diseases
- Only 1 extension worker per 10,000 farmers (FAO recommends 1:1,000)
- Agricultural knowledge locked in English
Our Solution:
- AI-powered disease detection accessible via smartphone
- Native language support through N-ATLaS
- Practical, localized treatment recommendations
