AgroVisNet: A lightweight Convolutional Network and the BD-PlantDX Expert-Validated Benchmark for Radish, Potato and Pointed Gourd Disease Classification

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 9, 2026 · UTC

Automated plant disease diagnosis is increasingly deployed on farmer-held devices in regions where agronomic expertise is scarce and network connectivity is unreliable. Three obstacles limit its practical value: public benchmarks are dominated by a small set of non-native crops, region-specific datasets are rarely validated by domain experts, and the architectures that reach competitive accuracy carry parameter budgets that are unsuited to low-cost hardware. We propose AgroVisNet, a compact convolutional network trained from scratch, together with BD-PlantDX, an expert-validated benchmark of 1
