Another name for the producers in the food chain is autotrophs, usually chlorophyl containing plants or algae. They are always at the beginning of the food chain.

A consumer is a heterotroph [primary and secondary consumers]

Decomposers are also heterotrophs, since they rely on other organisms for their energy and food supply.
