Julius Caesar was murdered on the ides of March because of expediency. In a short time, possibly one or two days, Caesar was due to leave for his Parthian campaign which could take two or more years. The ides of March happened to be the day of the last senate meeting that Caesar would attend before heading east. The conspirators acted on the ides, not wanting to tolerate another couple or three years of Caesar's Dictatorship.

The reasons that Julius Caesar was murdered was mainly that he had accumulated too much power, was not showing any indication of relinquishi8ng any of it, and was acting insulting and arrogant towards the senate (which gave him his authority in the first place). The Roman Republic was formed with the idea that there would never be a single person with supreme power/authority for more than one year. Caesar overstepped that limit. So, thinking that they were saving the republic and the Roman state, the conspirators acted.
