Mani Ji, It does live long but it has many disadvantages, first of all large surface roots, coming in the way of foundations of buildings, in a garden the roots spread to such distances that it takes away the fertilizers meant for other cash crops. However, a study needs made about any rhizobiums that it may be nurturing which may fertilize the soil. Remember it is a legume. Regards Yazdy.
