# AgroBench

AgroBench is a vision-language model (VLM) benchmark for agriculture, annotated by expert agronomists. It covers seven agricultural topics spanning 203 crop categories and 682 disease categories, with 4,342 question-answer examples pairing images with multiple-choice questions across tasks such as crop identification, disease diagnosis, pest identification, and weed identification.

This dataset has been standardized to the HF `image_text_to_text` format: one conversational `messages` schema, imagefolder-native images, and (if present) a `text_only` parquet config.

This dataset is indexed on https://project-agml.github.io/ as part of the AgML python library.

## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

# Single image folder -> one default config
ds = load_dataset("Project-AgML/AgroBench")

# Stream without downloading
ds = load_dataset("Project-AgML/AgroBench", streaming=True)
```
Every record shares the SAME columns so heterogeneous AgML datasets concatenate cleanly: `id`, `file_names` (one image per row), `messages`, `origin_dataset`, and `raw_metadata`. `raw_metadata` is a JSON-encoded string holding source fields not folded into `messages`/`file_names` (here: the original `source_image` filename and parsed `crop_prefix`); restore it with `json.loads(row["raw_metadata"])`. Image placeholders in `messages` align 1:1 with `file_names`. Using a JSON string (not a native struct) is what lets `concatenate_datasets([...])` work across datasets whose raw fields differ in type. Multi-image rows return images as a list aligned to the `{"type": "image"}` placeholders in messages.
