Hi there,
I am trying to find in a table with different variables, countries and years the
    lowest year
and within that year the
    lowest value
The following SELECT works, but I wonder if it is "elegant". Can you recommend any other solution?

SELECT value AS minv FROM public_on_table.data
WHERE id_variable = 1
ORDER BY year, value LIMIT 1

But that brings only the min value, not the min year. I need to know both of them, something like

     (min year = ) 1972, (min value = ) 20
