As the worlds second most consumed beverage after water, tea is not just a cultural staple but a global economic force of profound scale and influence. More than a mere drink, it represents a quiet negotiation between nature, culture, and the human desire for a moment of reflection. So, the precise identification and detection of tea leaf disease is crucial. With this goal, we have evaluated several Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) models, among them three shows noticeable performance including DenseNet201, MobileNetV2, InceptionV3 on the teaLeafBD dataset. teaLeafBD dataset contains seven classes, six disease classes and one healthy class, collected under various field conditions reflecting real world challenges. Among the CNN models, DenseNet201 has achieved the highest test accuracy of 99%. In order to enhance the model reliability and interpretability, we have implemented Gradient weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad CAM), occlusion sensitivity analysis and adversarial training techniques to increase the noise resistance of the model. Finally, we have developed a prototype in order to leverage the models capabilities on real life agriculture. This paper illustrates the deep learning models capabilities to classify the disease in real life tea leaf disease detection and management.
