Crop disease is considered as a major constraint to both food quality and production. Even in this era of precision agriculture, the lacking of compulsory infrastructure has made rapid identification of crop diseases quite hard in numerous regions around the world. In this paper, we introduced a new method based on biorthogonal wavelet transform (BWT) to identify prime maize leaf diseases. We performed biorthogonal wavelet decomposition and pixel wise morphological operation to segment the maize leaf lesion from input image. For feature extraction, by applying 2-D biorthogonal wavelet transform (BWT) at multiple levels we proposed a novel method to extract colour channel wise wavelet entropy features by investigating discriminatory potential of three different biorthogonal wavelet filters (bior3.3, bior3.5, and bior3.7). The effectiveness of our extracted features were evaluated by employing five different classifiers and obtaining 95.78% overall identification accuracy with 10-fold cross validation.
