Grasshoppers damage crops and causes millions of tons of food to be destroyed every year. The development of effective and accurate locust identification systems is critical in controlling locust species and preventing food loss. In this study, 11 different plant pest grasshopper species seen in various parts of our country and the world were classified using various convolutional neural network models. The dataset used in the study was obtained by observing the Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia regions of our country. The novelity of this study is that a dataset named GHCD11 has been created for 11 different plant pest grasshopper species in our country. In addition, VGG16, VGG19, ResNet50, DenseNet121, EfficientNet, MobileNet, which are in the Keras library and are widely used in image classification, were used for the automatic classification of 11 different grasshopper species in the study. As a result of experimental studies on the GHCD11 dataset with learning transfer, remarkable classification accuracies in the range of 95% to 99% were obtained. The study is important because it not only presents a novel dataset, but also demonstrates that automatic identification and detection of plant pest grasshopper species can be done with high accuracy using convolutional neural network architectures.
