Legumes are desired in crop rotation because leguminous plants form a symbiotic association with the Rhizobium and this symbiotic association help in nitrogen fixation. These leguminous plants replenish the nitrogen in the soil and thus reduce the amount of fertilizers that need to be used. 

Since, leguminous plants improve the amount of nitrogen present in soil; it is always desired to grow legumes in crop rotation.
