A producer is at the beginning of every food chain. Usually it is a green plant, which can use the energy in sunlight to produce food. That food supports all the other organisms.

There is no food chain until food is produced.

If you have a food chain then the chain must have a beginning (where the food is made) and an end (where the food is finally all used up). Thius in a food chain the "producers" of the food (the plants) are ALWAYS the start. The plants make food using CO2 from the air, Water from the ground and the energy they collect from Sunlight. It is the passing on of this energy from the Sun that is the chain.

What does a food food chain or food web start with?

A food chain or food web starts with producers, such as plants, that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. These producers are then consumed by primary consumers (herbivores), which are in turn consumed by secondary consumers (carnivores) and so on. This forms a linear food chain or a more complex food web.

Primary producers are plants or foliage that are at the beginning of every food chain/web. A primary producer is always eaten by a herbivore in ecology.
