Soybeans are known to work with bacteria to fix atmospheric nitrogen into reactive nitrogen which they use for their own purposes. This reactive nitrogen is then released into the soil when the soybean plants die and decay. When corn crops are planted, they benefit from the reactive nitrogen that had been added to the soil by the soybean crops, which results in higher yields.
