Farming Practices. The farming practices during the field trial are detailed in Table 4. During the 2012, 2013 and 2014 growing seasons, Cabrillo Farms grew Brussels sprouts on approximately 150 acres. One hundred acres of the Confidant variety were grown in the North field, while 50 acres of the Cobus variety were grown in the South field. The Confidant variety matures in 140-160 days from transplanting and the Cobus variety in 180-195 days from transplanting (Pfyffer Associates 2004). The 2012 season was the first time that Cabrillo Farms had grown the Cobus variety. Immediately following harvest in November 2011 for Confidant in the North field, and in December for Cobus in the South field, the fields were disked three times. Approximately 50-60 days before planting, in late February or early March, the Brussels sprouts seeds were started in the greenhouse. Preparation of the fields for planting in early May began with disking the soil three times to turn in the cover crop, followed by plowing 12-14” deep to break up compacted soils and bring soil to the surface where it was further broken up by disking three more times (6-8” deep). In 2012, the treatments were applied at this point. In all three years of the trial, the field was rototilled at this point, with the exception of 2012 in the South field where one disking was done instead. (Note that in subsequent years, the treatments were not reapplied before rototilling). Lime was then applied at 1 ton per acre and mixed to a depth of 6-8” with one disking pass. Fumigant (Vapan) and fungicide (Tetraclore) were applied next, followed by a pre-planting fertilizer (15-15-15) at 350 lbs/acre. Starters grown in a greenhouse were planted in rows (separated at 3 feet) with 1.5 feet between plants. Approximately 11,500 Cobus variety starters per acre were planted in the Southfield, and 14,500 Confidant variety starters per acre in the North field. 3 For reference, dry biochar bulk density is about 700lbs/cubic yard, meaning that each ton applied was approximately 2.86 cubic yards (Personal communication, Trip Xxxxx, Energy Anew Inc, January 16, 2016.) After planting, farming practices followed a rotating cycle of irrigation, cultivating and pesticide and fertilizer application. Irrigation occurred approximately every 20 days (for a total of seven times and 18” of water applied over the growing season); cultivation was done three times; and pesticide spraying was done six times over the course of the growing season. Two post-planti...
