As the primary raw material for sugar and ethanol production, sugarcane is a highly significant plantation commodity. However, its relatively long growing period of approximately one year makes it more susceptible to diseases. Machine learning technology has been applied in the identification of sugarcane leaves, including through pre-processing methods and the development of disease classification models using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) approaches. However, these methods exhibit limitations in terms of accuracy. Therefore, improving identification accuracy using VGG-16 is essential. The objective of this study is to enhance the accuracy of sugarcane leaf disease identification by utilizing VGG-16. The dataset consists of 2,521 sugarcane leaf images categorized into five classes. The results of this study indicate an accuracy improvement from 97.78% to 99.14%, reflecting an increase of 1.36%
