This research concentrates on the diagnosis of common mango leaf diseases in Bangladesh using image processing via deep learning. Mango production could be raised by at least 28% globally if the crop could be safeguarded from a variety of diseases. However, without the assistance of an expert, it is challenging for the farmer to detect the disease at the appropriate time. Few studies have been conducted to identify the mango leaf disease present in Bangladesh. So far, no study has been done to identify the seven distinct mango leaf diseases reported in Bangladesh. We proposed a lightweight convolutional neural network (LCNN) in this paper to accurately classify seven distinct mango leaf diseases as well as normal mango leaf. To assess the proposed LCNN model, performance is compared to several pre-trained models such as VGG16, Resnet50, Resnet101, and Xception, and it is found that LCNN achieves the highest testing accuracy (98%).
