Why does leguminous crop improve the nature of soil ?
Answer Posted / arun kumar ag
leguminous plants have nodules on their roots containing
bacteria which can fix nitrogen contained in the air in the
soil. This nitrogen becomes available to the plant, which
uses the nitrogen as an essential part of the proteins of
its cells. Other types of plant cannot do this, and have
available only the nitrate which is already present in the
water in the soil.
