Denitrifying bacteria are considered a nuisance to farmers because they can convert nitrates in the soil into nitrogen gas, which is then released into the atmosphere. This process reduces the availability of nitrogen, an essential nutrient for plant growth, thereby potentially decreasing crop yields. Additionally, the loss of nitrogen can lead to inefficient use of fertilizers, resulting in increased costs for farmers and reduced profitability. Overall, the activity of these bacteria can disrupt the delicate balance of soil fertility necessary for optimal agricultural productivity.

Why denitrification bacteria of the soil are a boon and a curse to the farmer?

Curse: Denitrifying bacteria convert the nitrogenous compounds into free nitrogen, hence reducing the nitrogenous compound levels in the soil. Boon: Denitrifying bacteria prevent the plants from having too much nitrogen. Extra nitrogen could harm the ecosystem as a whole, because some wild plants like cultivated crops can thrive on nitrogen. The growth of these plants is favoured in nitrogen-saturated environments. This upsets the ecosystem. Some of this sort of damage is seen in colder countries, where natural nitrogen cycling is slowest.

If you were a farmer and there was plague how would you cure it?

Plague? It would need to be a doctor not a farmer. But if you meant famine, it would depend on the reason for that famine. Like purifying the soil if it contains bacteria or something of the like. There are many different causes for a famine. The key to fixing it, would be to find the source and correct the problem there first.
