Abstract: Automation plays an important role towards maintaining a standard with proper deal of money for Horti-Agricultural products. The automatic technique is very useful in large farm with various fruits for sorting and packaging purposes. Again, it is essential to categorize the fruits with evaluating its quality as per consumer demand. This paper proposes a methodology for fruits identification and disease analysis using machine-learning techniques. The identification and quality evaluation of fruits is based on different features i.e. color, texture, shape and appearance of defects/ Diseases. Image pre-processing is used for increasing the details of image. Image segmentation separate an image in to different parts and from the segmented image, Gray-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM) is used to access needful features. The Multi class Support Vector Machine (MSVM) classifier is used to identify the type of fruits, detect the defects/disease appear on the fruit and classify the type of disease. The automated system successfully classifies five types of fruits i.e. Apple, Mango, Orange, Tomato and Pomegranate with accuracy of 94.02%. The second phase of methodology identified two most appeared common diseases i.e. Anthracnose and Fruit Rot with overall accuracy of 92.17%. Finally, to measure the severity of diseases Fuzzy Logic technique has been used and graded into three categories as per percentage of infection.
