Researchers at the University of Sussex and volunteer urban growers in Brighton and Hove found that allotmenteers grew over 70 kg of produce on average in one season, a range they said was within productivity levels on conventional non-organic farms, with limited pesticide use.
A full size allotment is 250sq m so, unless the Brighton plots are quarter plots - shouldn't they be growing more than 70kg - maybe 200kgs? It says one season? Maybe they split it over 3 or 4 - spring/summer/autumn/winter winter crops are pretty heavy?
