Alfalfa is a plant because it has all of the characteristics of another plant (such as a daisy). It is heterotrophic (meaning that it produces its own food), its cells are stuctured like a plant’s cells and not like an animal’s cells, and other features it shares in common with a plant. Therefore, Alfalfa is in the “plant kingdom”.
