Producers make their own energy. Eg plankton. two of the most important things to remember are; producers are at the very bottom of any food web/chain and herbivores aren't producers.

A consumer is an animal that consumes a plant or other animal for energy and growth.

A herbivore eats plants. A herbivore would also be considered a primary consumer.

A carnivore eats meat (which can include animals and insects). A carnivore would also be considered a secondary consumer.

An omnivore eats plants and animals.

Producers include things such as plants, which, rather ingesting another plant or animal for energy, uses sun light, water, and soil nutrients to grow. Primary consumers eat producers.

Decomposers use dead plants and animals for their source of energy. These include bacteria, fungi, certain insects, and lichens. This process results in nutrients to feed producers.
