If you want to disable logging completely then you can turn logging off on the root logger.

<root>
    <level value="OFF" />
</root>

If you want to disable only for Active Record you need to find out the namespace that Active Record is using (or if they did not follow this convention the logger name that Active record is using).

If it is about NHibernate then the following configuration does the trick:

<logger name="NHibernate" additivity="false">
    <level value="OFF"/>
</logger>
<root>
    <level value="DEBUG" />
    <appender-ref ref="LogFileAppender" />
</root>
