Answer 1

Answer:

The importance of leguminous plants is that these crops have nodules which are symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria. This is good for the soil because the bacteria fix atmosphere nitrogen into the soil which increases the natural level of soil nitrogen, this is vital for plant growth.

Answer 2

Answer:

Legumes fix the atmospheric nitrogen, release in the soil high-quality organic matter and facilitate soil nutrients' circulation and water retention. Based on these multiple functions, legume crops have high potential for conservation agriculture, being functional either as growing crop or as crop residue.
