ABSTRACT
Sunflower production is the main agricultural activity in India. More than 350.000 Indian
families depend on sunflower harvest. Since sunflower rust disease was first reported in the
country in 1983, these families have had to face severe consequences. Recently, machine
learning approaches have built a dataset for monitoring sunflower rust incidence that
involves weather conditions and physic sunflower properties. This background encouraged
us to build a dataset for sunflower rust detection in Colombian sunflowers through data
mining process as Cross Industry Standard Process for data mining (CRISP-DM). In this
paper we define a proper data to generate accurate models; once the dataset is built, this is
tested using classifiers as: KNN and Linear regression Trees By analyzing all these issues
and problems like weather, temperature and several factors, there is no proper solution and
technologies to overcome the situation faced by us. In India there are several ways to increase
the economic growth in the field of agriculture. There are multiple ways to increase and
improve the sunflower yield and the quality of the sunflowers. Data mining also useful for
predicting the sunflower yield production.

Sunflower Yield Prediction Using Machine Learning
Chapter 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
Six states with Karnataka in the lead are the major producers of sunflower in the country.
Karnataka with a production of 3.04 lakh tonnes from an area of 7.94 lakh hectares followed by
Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar, Orissa and Tamil Nadu are major sunflower producing states
of India. In India, Sunflower cultivation occupies about 1.48 M Ha area with average yield 0.6
MT/acre. Sunflower production follows a systemic weather risk as about 80 per cent of the area is
under rain-fed production.
In terms of productivity, Bihar leads with 1402 kg/ha followed by Tamil Nadu with 1328.7
kg, although both the states have less than 25000 hectares under the sunflower which is mostly
irrigated. The average productivity at all India level was 900 kg/ha depending on the climatic
conditions and irrigation, which are critical factors for high yields.
This work talks about K-Nearest Neighbor Algorithm and Linear Regression this algorithm does not
have any learning phase, because every time a classification is performed it uses a training set. The
assumption behind the k-nearest neighbor algorithm is that a similar classification is produced by
similar samples. The similar known samples used for assigning a classification to an unknown sample
are described by the parameter K. The comparison for the results obtained by KNN Algorithm is
given using Linear Regression Algorithm. Linear Regression is a linear approach for modelling the
relationship between a scalar dependent variable y and one or more explanatory variables (or
independent variables) denoted x.
1.2 Existing System

Nowadays, there are many agricultural sectors to provide guidance to the farmers regarding the
sunflower yield production. These agricultural sectors consider the Soil pH, Nitrogen and other
fertilizers to predict the sunflower yield and prescribe the measures to be taken to increase the
sunflower yield. Most of the time the weather conditions like Temperature ad Rainfall are not
considered to predict sunflower yield and hence there will be less accuracy in the predicted results
Dept. of CSE 1 GSSSIETW, Mysuru

as all there prediction is done manually. There is no automation for the prediction of “sunflower
Yield”.
1.3 Proposed System

Prediction of sunflower yield has become a major issue in agricultural field and is an area of
concern. This prediction gives a brief knowledge to the farmers regarding how much yield can be
expected on their plot based on the analysis of previous year records. This prediction is done using
the Classification Algorithm. Proposed system is automation for Sunflower Yield prediction using
the classification technique “KNN Algorithm”. A comparison for the result obtained by the KNN
Algorithm is given using Linear Regression.
1.4 Objective
1 “The sunflower yield prediction” helps to predict the yield based on the consideration of different
types of attributes like Temperature, Rainfall, Soil ph. level and Nitrogen.
2 “The sunflower yield prediction” predicts yield based on individual farmers past yield records
of particular plot.
3 “The sunflower yield prediction” predicts the yield using “KNN Algorithm” and a comparison
study has been given based on “Linear Regression”.
4 “The sunflower yield prediction” is implemented using JAVA technology.
1.5 Problem Statement

“Sunflower Yield prediction” has become a global issue and is an area of concern. All farmers
will not be having much knowledge regarding how much yield can be produced in their plot with
certain soil and weather condition.

LITERATURE SURVEY
Agriculture is the most important sector that influences the economy of India. It contributes
to 18% of India's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and gives employment to 50% of the population of
India. People of India are practicing Agriculture for years but the results are never satisfying due to
various factors that affect the sunflower yield
To fulfill the needs of around 1.2 billion people, it is very important to have a good yield of
sunflowers. Due to factors like soil type, precipitation, seed quality, lack of technical facilities etc the
sunflower yield is directly influenced. Hence, new technologies are necessary for satisfying the
growing need and farmers must work smartly by opting new technologies rather than going for trivial
methods. This paper focuses on implementing sunflower yield prediction system by using Data
Mining techniques by doing analysis on agriculture dataset. Different classifiers are used namely J48,
LWL, LAD Tree and IBK for prediction and then the performance of each is compared using WEKA
tool.
For evaluating performance Accuracy is used as one of the factors. The classifiers are further
compared with the values of Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and
Relative Absolute Error (RAE). Lesser the value of error, more accurate the algorithm will work. The
result is based on comparison among the classifiers. Food production in India is largely dependent
on cereal sunflowers including rice, wheat and various pulses. The sustainability and productivity of
rice growing areas is dependent on suitable climatic conditions.
Variability in seasonal climate conditions can have detrimental effect, with incidents of drought
reducing production. Developing better techniques to predict sunflower productivity in different
climatic conditions can assist farmer and other stakeholders in better decision making in terms of
agronomy and sunflower choice. Machine learning techniques can be used to improve prediction of
sunflower yield under different climatic scenarios.
This paper presents the review on use of such machine learning technique for Indian rice
sunflowerping areas. This paper discusses the experimental results obtained by applying SMO
classifier using the WEKA tool on the dataset of 27 districts of Maharashtra state, India. The dataset
considered for the rice sunflower yield prediction was sourced from publicly available Indian

Government records. The parameters considered for the study were precipitation, minimum
temperature, average temperature, maximum temperature and reference sunflower
evapotranspiration, area, production and yield for the Kharif season (June to November) for the years
1998 to 2002.
For the present study the mean absolute error (MAE), root mean squared error (RMSE), relative
absolute error (RAE) and root relative squared error (RRSE) were calculated. The experimental
results showed that the performance of other techniques on the same dataset was much better
compared to SMO. In this paper author has focused on the applications of Data Mining techniques in
agricultural field. Different Data Mining techniques are used, such asK-Means, K-Nearest Neighbor
(KNN), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) for very recent
applications of Data Mining techniques in agriculture field. In this paper they have considered the
problem of predicting yield production. This work aims at finding suitable data models that achieve
a high accuracy and a high generality in terms of yield prediction capabilities. For this purpose,
different types of Data Mining techniques were evaluated on different data sets.
In this paper authors present some of the most used data mining techniques in the field of agriculture.
In the near future the penetration of Information Technology and Agriculture results is more
interesting area of research. The main aim of this work is to improve and substantiate the validity of
yield prediction which is useful for the farmers. Agricultural sunflower production depends on
various factors such as biology, climate, economy and geography. Several factors have different
impacts on agriculture, which can be quantified using appropriate statistical methodologies.
Agronomic traits such as yield can be affected by a large number of variables. In this survey, they
have analyzed Data Mining methods like clustering, classification models to select the most relevant
method for the prospect.
The proposed research aims to develop a predictive model that provides a cultivation plan for farmers
to get high yield of sunflower sunflowers using data mining techniques. Unlike statistical approaches,
data mining techniques extract hidden knowledge through data analysis. The data set used in this
research for mining process is real data collected from farmers cultivating sunflower along the
Thamirabarani river basin.
K-means clustering and various decision tree classifiers are applied to meteorological and agronomic
data for the sunflower sunflower. The performance of various classifiers is validated and compared.

Based on experimentation and evaluation, it has been concluded that the random forest classifier
outperforms the other classification methods. Moreover, classification of clustered data provides good
classification accuracy. The outcome of this research is the identification of different combination of
traits for achieving high yield in sunflower sunflower. The final rules extracted by this research are
useful for farmers to make proactive and knowledge-driven decisions before harvest.

IMPLEMENTATION
The project is implemented using java which is an object oriented programming language and
procedure oriented programming language. Object oriented programming is an approach that
provides a way of modularizing program by creating partitioned memory area of both data and
function that can be used as a template for creating copies of such module on demand.
This project is implemented using java programming language. Java is dynamically

typed and garbage-collected. It supports multiple programming paradigms, including procedural,
object-oriented, and functional programming. Java is often described as a "batteries included"
language due to its comprehensive standard library. The machine Learning techniques are used in
this project.
Machine Learning overview :
Machine learning is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides computers with the ability to
learn without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning focuses on the development of
Computer Programs that can change when exposed to new data. In this article, we’ll see basics of
Machine Learning, and implementation of a simple machine learning algorithm using java.
Machine learning involves a computer to be trained using a given data set, and use this training to
predict the properties of a given new data. For example, we can train a computer by feeding it 1000
images of cats and 1000 more images which are not of a cat, and tell each time to the computer
whether a picture is cat or not. Then if we show the computer a new image, then from the above
training, the computer should be able to tell whether this new image is a cat or not.
The process of training and prediction involves the use of specialized algorithms. We feed the training
data to an algorithm, and the algorithm uses this training data to give predictions on a new test data.
One such algorithm is K-Nearest-Neighbor classification (KNN classification). It takes a test data,
and finds k nearest data values to this data from test data set. Then it selects the neighbor of maximum
frequency and gives its properties as the prediction result.

4.1 Methodology
KNN [K-Nearest Neighbors]
KNN is also a lazy algorithm (as opposed to an eager algorithm). this means is that it does not use the
training data points to do any generalization. In other words, there is no explicit training phase or it is
very minimal. This also means that the training phase is pretty fast . Lack of generalization means that
KNN keeps all the training data. To be more exact, all (or most) the training data is needed during the
testing phase.KNN Algorithm is based on feature similarity: How closely out-of-sample features
resemble our training set determines how we classify a given data point:KNN can be used
for classification — the output is a class membership (predicts a class — a discrete value). An object
is classified by a majority vote of its neighbors, with the object being assigned to the class most
common among its k nearest neighbors. It can also be used for regression — output is the value for
the object (predicts continuous values). This value is the average (or median) of the values of it’s k
nearest neighbors.
The training examples are vectors in a multidimensional feature space, each with a class label. The
training phase of the algorithm consists only of storing the feature vectors and class labels of the
training samples.In the classification phase, k is a user-defined constant, and an unlabeled vector (a
query or test point) is classified by assigning the label which is most frequent among the k training
samples nearest to that query point.A commonly used distance metric for continuous variables is
Euclidean distance. For discrete variables, such as for text classification, another metric can be used,
such as the overlap metric (or Hamming distance). In the context of gene expression microarray data,
for example, k-NN has been employed with correlation coefficients, such as Pearson and Spearman,
as a metric. Often, the classification accuracy of k-NN can be improved significantly if the distance
metric is learned with specialized algorithms such as Large Margin Nearest Neighbor or
Neighbourhood components analysis.A drawback of the basic "majority voting" classification occurs
when the class distribution is skewed. That is, examples of a more frequent class tend to dominate the
prediction of the new example, because they tend to be common among the k nearest neighbors due
to their large number.

One way to overcome this problem is to weight the classification, taking into account the distance
from the test point to each of its k nearest neighbors. The class (or value, in regression problems) of
each of the k nearest points is multiplied by a weight proportional to the inverse of the distance from
that point to the test point. Another way to overcome skew is by abstraction in data representation. For
example, in a self-organizing map (SOM), each node is a representative (a center) of a cluster of
similar points, regardless of their density in the original training data. K-NN can then be applied to the
SOM.
The best choice of k depends upon the data; generally, larger values of k reduces effect of the noise
on the classification, but make boundaries between classes less distinct. A good k can be selected by
various heuristic techniques (see hyperparameter optimization). The special case where the class is
predicted to be the class of the closest training sample (i.e. when k = 1) is called the nearest neighbor
algorithm.

LINEAR REGRESSION ALGORITHM
linear regression is a linear approach to modeling the relationship between a scalar response
(or dependent variable) and one or more explanatory variables (or independent variables). The case
of one explanatory variable is called simple linear regression. For more than one explanatory variable,
the process is called multiple Linear Regression. In linear regression, the relationships are modeled
using linear predictor functions whose unknown model parameters are estimated from the data. Such
models are called linear models.[3] Most commonly, the conditional mean of the response given the
values of the explanatory variables (or predictors) is assumed to be an affine function of those values;
less commonly, the conditional median or some other quintile is used.

TESTING
5.1 Introduction to Testing

Verification and validation is a generic name given to checking processes, which ensures that the
software conforms to its specifications and meets the demands of users.
• Validation
Are we building the right product? Validation involves checking that the program has
implanted meets the requirement of the users.
• Verification
Are we building the product right? Verification involves checking that the program confirms
to its specification.
Stages in the Implementation of Testing
Unit testing:
Each individual unit is tested for correctness. These individual components will be tested to ensure
that they operate correctly.
Module Testing:
A module is a collection of dependent components such as a function. A module encapsulates
related components so can test without other system modules.
Sub-system Testing:
This phase involves testing collection of modules, which have been integrated into sub-
systems.Sub-systems may be independently designed and implemented.
System testing:
The sub-systems are integrated to make up the entire system. The errors that result from
unanticipated interaction between sub-systems and system components are removed.
Acceptance testing:
This is the final stage in the testing process before the system is tested for operational use.Any
requirement problem or requirement definition problem revealed from acceptance testing are
considered and made error free.
Test Plan:
Careful planning is needed to the most of testing and controlled testing cost.

CONCLUSION
• This project is an agricultural sector application which helps the farmers in the predicting
the sunflower yield based on the previous year datasets.
• Famers can check the predicted sunflower yield for their plot by entering the past data of
their plot.
• It is automation for sunflower yield prediction and is an efficient and is economically
faster.
• It is successfully accomplished by applying the KNN Algorithm for sunflower yield
prediction and Linear Regression Algorithm for giving a comparison result for KNN
algorithm.
• The Classification technique comes under data mining technology. These algorithms take
the previous datasets as input and predict the sunflower yield based on the previous
datasets.

FUTURE ENHANCEMENT
• The present system is developed for the prediction of Sunflower only, in future a system
can be developed to predict sunflower yield for different types of sunflowers, vegetables,
flowers and so on.
• The present system is developed for the seven different taluks of Mysuru only; future
enhancement can be made by developing a system where prediction can be done for
different cities and their taluks.
• The present system outputs the result based on KNN Algorithm and Linear Regression,
whereas a system can be developed by the fusion of these algorithms as well as a
comparison for KNN algorithm.
