arXiv:2509. 06625v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Plants in their natural habitats endure an array of interacting stresses, both biotic and abiotic, that rarely occur in isolation.
By Aswini Kumar Patra, Anshu Rastogi, Lingaraj Sahoo
The paper introduces the Hybrid Hierarchical Multi-Agent Framework (H$^{2}$MAF), which fuses decision-level outputs from EfficientNet-B3 and ConvNeXt-Tiny with semantic arbitration by multimodal large language models Gemma 4 E4B and Qwen3.5 4B to produce explainable plant disease diagnoses. Evaluated on 14,364 images from PlantDoc and two Cornell robotic field datasets, the framework achieves up to 99.3% accuracy, with Gemma improving PlantDoc accuracy from 63.9% to 68.5% and demonstrating low critical‑risk error. The results highlight the potential of MLLM arbitration for reliable, explainable agricultural AI under real‑world field conditions.
