One of the main reasons is because pulse crops have the ability to "fix" atmospheric nitrogen in the soil, providing a primary nutrient for the following cereal crop. Sufficient soil nitrogen is probably the most potentially yield-limiting nutrient that the plant needs.
Kashmir Region:- Saffron, Rice, Apple and Cherry Jammu Region:- Rice, Weat, Corn, Maize, Barley, Pulses and Vegetables Basmati rice and rajmash (pulses) are valuable cash crops of the region. Medicinal plants and fodder are also grown in specific areas of the region.
summer crops are those which are grown in the month of March to June .they are grown in places where the water supply is adequate and soil fertility is good. They include Rice,Potato,Maize,Pulses etc..
Crop Rotation:Crops are grown IN TURN through the seasons.Eg:wheat-groundnuts-wheat-groundnutStrip Cropping:Crops are grown at the SAME TIME but in alternating rows.Eg.wheat and pulses
Pulses are grown in 3 provinces of Pakistan. Punjab produces pulses at large quantity. Sindh and KPK also contribute in production of pulses.

The growing of different kinds of crops on a piece of land in a preplanned succession is known as crop rotation. In the rotation of crops, leguminous crops like pulses, beans, peas, groundnut and Bengal gram are sown in-between the seasons of cereal crops like wheat, maize and pearl millet. 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. So by rotation a leguminous crop is grown. There plants have the ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen to form nitrogen compounds through the help of certain bacteria present in their root. These nitrogen compounds go into the soil and make it more fertile. After the leguminous plants utilize some of the nitrogen compounds, the rest of it is left in the soil to enrich it. Thus, planting a leguminous plant will result in nitrogen rich soil and when a cereal is grown in this soil there is increase in food grain production.
Cash crops are crops normally grown to be sold for profit. Peanuts and rice can fall into that category, and usually do.

Some crops that are commonly grown along the Indus River include wheat, rice, cotton, sugarcane, and pulses (such as lentils and chickpeas). These crops are well-suited to the fertile soil and the availability of water from the river.
The crops should be grown on the land and fields that lay near villagers and well manures .if they plant opium on the land then pulses could not be grown there or they would have to grow on the interior land where harvests were poorer.
There are several types of crops that are grown in the Chena cultivation. Some of the crops that are grown are vegetables, grains, legumes, and oil crops.
