If you’re trying to build soil you really don’t want to grow crops of pure legumes unless maybe you just have a heavy, heavy crop of mature cereal rye to counter it with in the spring or something of that nature……Those legumes have a C:N ratio of about 10:1……They arent adding any carbon back to the system…..Its basically just burning "fuel"......In comparison mature cereal rye is about 82:1
