Answer:
- Pulses are the major source of protein and vegetarian's diet. Being leguminous crops, they help in restoring soil fertility by utilising nitrogen from the air (nitrogen fixation). Therefore, pulses are mostly grown in rotation with other crops.
- (i) Pulses are grown as rotation crop because pulses are leguminous crop which changes atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates and restores the fertility of the soil. (ii) Millets are referred to as dry crops, because they can also grow in regions of low rainfall and poor soils.
- India is the largest producer as well as consumer of pulses in the world. Major pulses that are grown in India are tur (arhar), urad, moong, masur, peas and gram. Major pulse producing states in India are Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra and Karnataka.
