The entire plant contains nitrogen, so you can take the beans and till the rest back in and it should still be net positive, I think. I'm not a botanist.

Oh wow, you are (generally) right. Of course, it depends on beans and conditions, but some farmers even add nitrogen fertilizers to the beans :O

Pretty sure you can with any plant matter to some extent. I presume beans are just really good for nitrogen.
