    Agriculture plays a vital role in the economic development of the entire world. Similarly, in Sri Lanka, 6.9% of the national GDP is contributed by the agricultural sector and more than 25% of Sri Lankans are employed in the field of agriculture. But the frequent fluctuations of climate conditions have caused the spread of diseases such as late blight which eventually has led to the devastation of entire plantations of Sri Lankans. To this end, this paper proposes to forecast the possible dispersion pattern and assist the farmers in identifying the possibility of the disease getting dispersed to nearby crops to provide early warning. Eventually, it leads the farmers to take precautions to save the plants before reaching a critical stage. The yielded results show that the proposed method successfully performed disease diagnosis and disease progression level identification with 90-94 % accuracy and dispersion pattern analysis.
