	*This is a scientific law that states that the limit to something's growth/success is not determined by the quantity of ~~all~~ the ~~resources, but only by the lowest one~~
	*It was originally applied to agricultural science, but can be applied to other things such as chemical reactors and even industrial managment
	*See the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebig%27s_law_of_the_minimum Wikipedia Page] ~~on it for more info~~

	~~I like to think of it in phases of agricultural development (minus plant breeding, that kind of occurs in a seperate box) :~~

	~~#Think of the fist agriculture, It was barely irrigated, fertilized, carefully planted or any of that fancyness~~
	~~#Then you get irrigation, so the water is no longer the limiting factor~~
	~~#Then you get better planting and plant care practices (almanacs + plows etc), so that isn't a limiting factor~~
	~~#Then you get fertilizers so nutrients in the soil are no longer the limiting factor~~
	~~#Then you get greenhouses so climate is no longer a limiting factor~~
	~~#Then you get hydroponics/aeroponics so root absorbtion of nutrients (as well as oxygen levels) are no longer a problem~~
	~~#Then you get grow lights so that day night cycle is optimized and that limiting factor goes away~~
	~~#Then you get a CO2 Generator as the concentration of usable CO2 becomes the limiting factor~~
	~~#Then you are pretty much are only limited by plant breeding at that point~~

	~~(Granted this is a bit oversimplified, and not entirely in a sequential order like this in real life, but you get the point)~~
