Indonesia is classified as an agricultural country, where agriculture plays an important role in supporting national development and meeting the needs of the population. Among horticultural crops, cayenne pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) has high economic value and is an important source of income for farmers. Indonesia is also one of the largest chili consumer countries in the world. According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), national cayenne pepper production reached 1.55 million tons in 2022, an increase of 11.5% from 1.39 million tons in the previous year. However, the price of cayenne pepper can fluctuate significantly, often rising sharply when production declines. One of the main factors causing a decrease in yields is the prevalence of plant diseases such as curly leaves, leaf spots, and yellowing. These diseases greatly affect plant health and reduce the quality and quantity of the harvest. To answer this, this study aims to detect and classify diseases in cayenne pepper leaves using the YOLO (You Only Look Once) version 8 object detection algorithm. YOLO is a well-known computer vision model and is used to detect objects in real-time because it has speed and accuracy in identifying objects in images and video frames. With the application of YOLO, the types of diseases that attack chili plants can be identified accurately, so that monitoring and management of diseases can be carried out more effectively. The best level of accuracy obtained with YOLOv8 object detection has a large detection accuracy or mAP (Mean Average Precision) value of up to 0.887 or 88.7%.
