Producers and consumers can also be found in nature. Plants are producers as they create their own food using sunlight and carbon dioxide. Animals are consumers as they have to eat other organisms to survive. Producers and consumers don't always have to be living things. For example, machines can be producers by manufacturing products, and consumers by using energy to run. In economics, producers and consumers don't just refer to physical goods, but also include services like haircuts and tuition.
