Solution(By Examveda Team)

The Law of minimum is the theory proposed by Justus von Liebig, a German Scientist, which means that among all 16 essential nutrients if any one of them is missing or in less quantity than what is required by a plant then the yield and growth of the plant will be directly proportional to the amount of that minimum element i.e. that will also be poor even if all other nutrients are in proper quantity and abundance. That one element can lead to poor growth and yield.
