In a food chain, green plants are referred to as primary producers or autotrophs. They are organisms that can produce their own food through photosynthesis, converting sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into energy-rich organic compounds. This process forms the base of the food chain, providing energy for herbivores (primary consumers) and, subsequently, higher trophic levels.

Yes, grass is a green plant. All green plants are producers.
In the food chain, plants are producers ( because they make oxygen thru the process of photosynthesis.)
It produces food so first level consumer can eat and so on
At the bottom of every food chain there is a green plant. Something that can photosynthesise and make its own food from carbon dioxide, water and sunlight energy.
all organisms that make its own food such as plants
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.
The green plant is the base of the chain because it is a producer. The grasshopper could be called primary consumer of the plant. The turkey is the secondary consumer of the grasshopper. The human is the tertiary consumer of the turkey.
