🚀 Peek Rakshak
🌱 Inspiration
Agriculture is the backbone of our economy, yet farmers face challenges such as crop diseases, inefficient fertilizer use, and unpredictable yields. We wanted to leverage AI/ML to create an intelligent crop monitoring system that empowers farmers with actionable insights.
🛠 How We Built It
We designed Peek Rakshak as a machine learning-powered web platform that integrates multiple AI models for agricultural analysis. The core components include:
Crop Recommendation System:
- Trained an ML model using Random Forest on soil and environmental data.
- Suggests the best crops to cultivate based on soil conditions.
- Trained an ML model using Random Forest on soil and environmental data.
Fertilizer Recommendation Model:
- Developed using decision trees and regression models.
- Provides personalized fertilizer advice based on nutrient levels.
- Developed using decision trees and regression models.
Leaf Disease Detection:
- Implemented a Resnet (CNN) model in TensorFlow/Keras with 98% accuracy.
- Trained on a dataset of diseased and healthy leaf images.
- Deployed using Flask/FastAPI for real-time predictions.
- Implemented a Resnet (CNN) model in TensorFlow/Keras with 98% accuracy.
🔥 Challenges We Faced
- Model Optimization: Training deep learning models required computational efficiency, so we optimized architectures using quantization and model pruning.
- Integration Integrating the frontend with the ML models running in the backend flask server.
🎓 What We Learned
- How to fine-tune deep learning models for agriculture.
- Deploying AI models in real-world applications using Flask.
- The importance of user-friendly AI interfaces for non-technical users.
🌍 Impact
Peek Rakshak aims to reduce agricultural losses and improve crop yield efficiency by providing AI-driven recommendations to farmers. With real-time insights, we empower farmers to make data-driven decisions for sustainable farming.
