Explain why a legume crop does not require nitrogenous fertilizers?

The nitrogen-fixing bacteria reside in the root nodules of the leguminous plants. They convert atmospheric nitrogen into soluble nitrogenous compounds. These nitrogenous compounds make the soil fertile. Hence a legume crop does not require nitrogenous fertilisers.
