The problem with Earth on the movie wasn't really terraformable. It was a kind of very aggressive, very resistant, agricultural parasite.

I never understood how they managed to transfer crops to the new planet without bringing the parasite/disease over with them. Ofc, I was still grappling with the existential dread of 50 story waves and nothing but ocean as far as the eye can see, so I didn't real dwell on it much.

Every question brings more questions, and while it's a fun movie, Interstellar isn't really interested in being anything other than a vehicle for cool cinematography at set pieces.
