<![CDATA[Accurate and efficient identification of diseases in oil palm leaves is a crucial challenge in maintaining plantation productivity and preventing significant crop losses. Limited access to experts and slow detection in the field are often obstacles. This study aims to develop a palm oil leaf disease classification model using a deep learning approach based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with MobileNetV2 architecture. This model utilizes a transfer learning strategy from pre-trained ImageNet weights and is optimized through a two-phase training strategy on a dataset consisting of 1200 augmented oil palm leaf images, covering four classes, namely Healthy Sample, Fusarium Wilt, Parlatoria Blanchardi, and Rachis Blight. Model testing results show an accuracy of 85% on separate test data. The MobileNetV2 architecture was chosen for its lightweight characteristics, making this model efficient and highly suitable for implementation on mobile devices to assist in rapid disease identification in the field and support decision-making by farmers.]]>
