Pulses, or pulse crops, are leguminous crops which produce a seed inside a pod, but are not generally consumed as a green vegetable. Dry beans, dry peas, lentils, chickpeas, and vetch are some examples. They are important due to their high protein and essential amino acid content, and for their nitrogen-fixing capability.
If the rain was late, the crops would dry out and die. Of course, the crops could survive if watered them yourself.

"Under ideal conditions, pulse crops can fix as much as 50-80 per cent of their total nitrogen requirement, with the remaining nitrogen coming from soil or fertilizer sources. Pulse crops can be ranked according to their estimated ability to fix nitrogen: faba bean > pea > chickling vetch > chickpea > lentil > soybean > lupin> dry bean." I looked up pulses "nitrogen fixing" in Google to find that site).
