Abstract -
The color of leaf corresponds to
nitrogen deficiency status of that particular crop,
farmers compares color of leaf with Leaf Color
Chart (LCC) in order to estimate the need of
nitrogen fertilizer of their crop. However the
ability to compare leaf color with the LCC varies
from person to person that affects the accuracy of
final result. This paper proposes a mobile-device
based application called "mlcc". Main idea is to
simultaneously capture and process a 2-D color
image of rice leaf, thus eliminating the expensive
external components, reducing the human color
perception and results in achieving high color
accuracy. This android-based application can be
correctly identified all the important 6 green color
levels of rice leaf.
