Disturbance being set to agriculture in runs with disturbance off

[mccabete]

I am running into an issue where my Dist_type is being set to 1. In the reproduction code, Dist_type = 1 is the agricultural case. None of my flags are allowing agriculture -- or any disturbance at all. Are the cases in the reproduction code up to date? Is one supposed to be Agriculture? I could imagine the code being updated but the cases not being updated.

Reproduction Code:

If agriculture is Dist_type 1, is there a place that flag could be being set other that the config.xml and/or the ED2IN?

@mccabete You are spot on, and I just made a quick pull request about this. Thanks for catching this!

Pastures and croplands used to be lumped together in dist_type 1, but we now distinguish them (pastures are dist_type = 1 and croplands are dist_type = 8). Somehow this routine was not updated to assign the right PFTs for pastures and croplands (my bad). Not sure if this is the issue or if it is something else, but this was a bug in the code and needed to be fixed. Let me know if this fixes the lack of reproduction.
