Question

Why do farmers grow leguminous plants alternately with other crops?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The leguminous plants are grown alternately with non-leguminous plants to restore the fertility of the soil. When the cereal crops like rice, wheat, maize are grown in the soil, it uses up a lot of nitrogenous salts from the soil. If another crop of cereal is grown in the same soil, the soil becomes nitrogen deficient.
