Why do people who grow crops have to stay in the same place for a long time?

Because crops are plants, like wheat, corn, and so on. And you can't really pick up a corn field to bring it with you when you move.
On top of that usually you can't just spread the seeds on the ground wherever you are. The soil has to suit the plant you want to grow, it has to get water enough, and you have to clear away the competing plants.
Once you've found a good spot, it's easier to stay put.

Why did the nomadic native Americans move place too place?
As far as my People, the Ojibwé, we were not Nomadic in the sense of the definition. We had a home. Many crops would not grow where we called home, so we made long pilgrimages all along the Eastern United States and Canada to where the crops grew. When the harvest season was done, we travelled back home.Since all of the other Tribes did the same, we all played a game like La Crosse to determine which Tribes got what percentage of the crops. To prevent wars, no Tribe left empty handed.
