Solution

The correct option is C Leibig
The law of the minimum was proposed by Liebig. It was based on the effect of the growth factor on plants. It is widely used for estimation in the field of natural resource management. It states that growth is controlled not by the total amount of resources available, but by the scarcest resource (limiting factor).
So, the correct answer is option C.
