Solution(By Examveda Team)

Seeds of pulses are inoculated with bacteria to increase Nitrogen supply.
Pulses belong to the legume family and nitrogen fixation is the main and distinguishing feature of the pulse family.
Nitrogen fixation is the process whereby legume crops and specific rhizobium bacteria associate symbiotically to produce nitrogen from the soil air and make it available to be absorbed and used by the plant.
