1 Pulse crops help break disease and pest cycles in wheat and barley. 2  The wheat or barley crop that follows a pulse crop can experience substantial rotational benefits, improving yield and quality. 3  Pulse crops are versatile, adding flexibility to cropping systems. Pluse crop acres have increased from 350,000 in 2009 to over 700,000 in 2014. 2  Pulse crops require little (if any) nitrogen fertilizer; instead they fix nitrogen from the air into the soil. 3  Pulse crops help break disease and pest cycles in wheat and barley.
