“…Agriculture can be viewed as the backbone of the Indian economy, being the primary occupation of numerous individuals residing in India [19] . Challenges concerning agricultural productivity, inefficient pricing of agriculture products, problems of irrigation, non-availability of farm labourers, production of produce dependent of external and natural conditions verses issues concerning pricing, are all of deep concern.…”

The aim of this study is to understand the economic implications before and during the COVID-19 pandemic to facilitate progression towards a ‘new normal’ society post-pandemic. There is a focus on the Indian economy. The COVID-19 pandemic has created a grave impact on the economy affecting employment systems, where many learned youths have lost their jobs. Education systems have been faced with closures of institutions and decreased funding. Financial Markets have been affected with a negative growth rate in GDP, external trade, the political system, Indian cooperate companies, the agricultural sector, the elderly people in society, women and migrate laborers who have endured the ‘black march’ walking from Southern India to Northern India have all be affected. During the pandemic there has been enormous disruption to society, many disparities have been highlighted and immense economic loss. There have been effects on economic developments, civilization, and human direction. It is paramount to learn from the past pandemics, forming a restructured and sustainable future that society can call ‘normal’. Hence the pandemic has provided an opportunity to create and employ new strategies to aid future economic development by preventing past mistakes. The increase in global digital economy will facilitate informed decisions to be made during COVID-19, and aid towards rebuilding the economy, promoting growth and prosperity in a safe way. It will also enable countries globally to together with resilience to create a ‘new normal’ society.

“…As over all economy is increasing, a huge opportunity is there for the agricultural product in India, which ultimately open the opportunities for farmers' income in an optimism way. Again, Wagh & Dongre, [16] found that growth of the agricultural sector depends on multiple factors that are working together, where these factors include income and consumption, expansion of food processing sectors and increasing in the agriculture exports. Also rising in private participation in Indian agriculture, growing organic farming and use of the information technology are some of the key trends of agriculture industry, which shows that the growing trend of economy with respect to the agriculture sector is giving a positive signal to the indian famers for the future production.…”

“…It not only provides food for humans but also is considered one of the major sources of income for most developing countries, such as India. It contributes to 14% of India's total Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and, provides employment to approximately 54.6% of the population, directly or indirectly [1]. Amongst agricultural yields, rice has been considered the staple food for more than half of the global population.…”

Automatic Rice Disease Detection and Assistance Framework Using Deep Learning and a Chatbot

Agriculture not only supplies food but is also a source of income for a vast population of the world. Paddy plants usually produce a brown-coloured husk on the top and their seed, after de-husking and processing, yields edible rice which is a major cereal food crop and staple food, and therefore, becomes the cornerstone of the food security for half the world’s people. However, with the increase in climate change and global warming, the quality and its production are highly degraded by the common diseases posed in rice plants due to bacteria and fungi (such as sheath rot, leaf blast, leaf smut, brown spot, and bacterial blight). Therefore, to accurately identify these diseases at an early stage, recently, recognition and classification of crop diseases is in burning demand. Hence, the present work proposes an automatic system in the form of a smartphone application (E-crop doctor) to detect diseases from paddy leaves which can also suggest pesticides to farmers. The application also has a chatbot named “docCrop” which provides 24 × 7 support to the farmers. The efficiency of the two most popular object detection algorithms (YOLOv3 tiny and YOLOv4 tiny) for smartphone applications was analysed for the detection of three diseases—brown spot, leaf blast, and hispa. The results reveal that YOLOv4 tiny achieved a mAP of 97.36% which is significantly higher by a margin of 17.59% than YOLOv3 tiny. Hence, YOLOv4 tiny is deployed for the development of the mobile application for use.
