what are the benefits of cultivating leguminous plants?
Answers
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.

hope it helps
Explanation:
Legumes can fix substantial quantities of nitrogen (N) and this can be maximised by ensuring low plant available N in the soil at sowing and inoculating the seed if a paddock has not had a host legume nodulated by the same rhizobia in the last four years.
Acid soils will require more regular inoculation or liming (except for narrow-leaf lupin).
The net N benefit from N fixation by legumes is dependent on the balance between atmospheric nitrogen (N2) fixation and N removed as grain, hay or forage.
Legume N residues can make an important contribution to N uptake.
