For economists agricultural productivity is often assessed by measuring the production of an agricultural good (e.g. the yield of a food crop) and by estimating its value on the market thus knowing the potential for profits.However, for many farmers (and in particular, in non-industrial countries) agricultural productivity may mean much more than that. A productive farm is one that provides most of the resources necessary for the farmers family to live, such as food, cloth, fuel, healing plants...It is a farm which ensure food security as well as a way to sustain the well-being of a community. This implies a productive farm is also one which is able to ensure proper management of natural resources, such as biodiversity, soil, water...
For most farmers, a productive farm would also produce more goods than required for the community in order to allow trade.
Diversity in agricultural production system is the key of productivity, as it unable risk management, and preserve potentials for adaptation and change.
Monoculture is an example of such a non diverse production system; In a monocultural system a farmer may produce only crops, but no livestock, or only livestock and no crop.
Livestock raising benefits are that it provides food, wool, hides, transportation. It also has an important value in term of social relationships (gifts in weddings...). In case of famine when crops are not sufficient to ensure food safety and livestock raising, livestock can be used as food. Livestock may also provide manure, which can be used to fertilize cultivated soils, hence help increase the soil productivity.
On the other hand, in an agricultural system bases on livestock raising only, food has to be bought to other farmers, and wastes produced can not be easily disposed of.
Production has many functions, and diversity is the foundation of such production. To ignore the complex functions provided by a farm is thought by many to turn agricultural production into a commodity.

At the beginning of 2003, the United States and the United Kingdom both claimed that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction or was developing them. These claims were not limited to the UK and US. The intelligence services of many countries assessed that Iraq still had covert WMD programs. Iraqi production and use of weapons of mass destruction were forbidden by the United Nations under the terms of the ceasefire of the 1991 Gulf War.Since then, ample evidence has been found to show that Iraq broke the terms of the ceasefire. However, at the time that evidence was found, nothing substantive was done about that fact, aside from a few cruise missiles being launched by American warships. In addition to being forbidden to possess or develop WMD, Iraq was also bound to cooperate with the inspectors from the UN sent to verify destruction of the WMD programs. There is dispute about whether Iraq still had WMD programs after 1998, but Iraq was certainly not cooperating fully with UN inspectors, even in the last few weeks of their work before renewed full-scale hostilities began again in 2003. This is evidenced by a statement of the UN Chief Weapons Inspector in early 2003 saying Iraq has, "...not genuinely accepted U.N. resolutions demanding that it disarm."
Even in lieu of actual WMD programs, legal justification for the campaign was claimed due to the lack of cooperation by Iraq. The stated intention of the U.S. plan to invade Iraq was to eliminate Iraq's ability to threaten its neighbors or its own people with weapons of mass destruction. Since the Iraqi government would not cooperate with efforts to peacefully verify that its programs were not extant, a full scale invasion was launched.
Documented uses of WMD
Substantial evidence existed (see links below) that chemical weapons and nerve gas were manufactured and used by Iraq internally against Kurdish villages and against Iran in the Iran-Iraq war. However, there is no evidence that Iraq made use of chemical weapons during the Gulf War. It is also known that at the time of Desert Storm and in the decades preceding, Iraq had an active nuclear weapons program. On October 3, 2003, the David Kay's Iraq Survey Group report that finds some evidence of WMD in Iraq.
U.N. Resolutions and Weapons Inspectors
In the aftermath of the Gulf War, Iraq was subjected to inspections by UN weapons inspectors and forbidden from developing weapons of mass destruction. The United Nations Special Commission on Iraq (UNSCOM) was headed by Rolf Ekeus and later Richard Butler. Between 1991 and 1995, UN inspectors uncovered a massive program to develop nuclear weapons and large amount of equipment was confiscated and removed. Some experts believe that as of 1991, Iraq was within one to three years of developing nuclear weapons. However, some think Iraq's nuclear weapons program suffered a serious setback in 1981 when the reactor used to generate source material for its bomb was bombed[1] by Israel.
In 1998, after more than seven years of inspections, Iraq charged that the commission was a cover for US espionage and refused UNSCOM access to certain sites. Although Ekeus has said that he resisted attempts at such espionage, many allegations have since been made against Butler, see for example [1] or [1]. Butler has vehemently denied the charges. Amidst controversy, Butler withdrew the UNSCOM team for safety reasons ahead of US bombing.
Former UNSCOM weapons inspector Scott Ritter stated that, as of 1998, 90-95% of Iraq's nuclear, biological, and chemical capabilities, and long-range ballistic missiles capable of delivering such weapons, had been verified as destroyed. Technical 100% verification was not possible, claims Ritter, not because Iraq still had any hidden weapons, but because Iraq had preemptively destroyed some stockpiles and claimed they had never existed.
That year, Ritter sharply criticized the Clinton administration and the U.N. Security Council for not being vigorous enough about insisting that Iraq's weapons of mass destruction be destroyed. Ritter also accused U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan of assisting Iraqi efforts at impeding UNSCOM's work. "Iraq is not disarming," Ritter said on August 27, 1998, and in a second statement, "Iraq retains the capability to launch a chemical strike."
2003 Crisis and Controversy
Between 1997 and 2002, Iraq prevented UN weapons inspectors from entering the country and the resulting controversy at the beginning of 2003 was whether or not Iraq used their absence to develop weapons of mass destruction in violation of UN resolutions. Another controversial point came from estimating the time it would take Iraq to produce nuclear weapons from raw materials.
The International Institute for Strategic Studies in Great Britain published (September 2002) a review of Iraq's current military capability, and concluded that Iraq could assemble nuclear weapons within months if fissile material from foreign sources were obtained.
Iraq insisted it no longer had any weapons of mass destruction.
The United States claimed the opposite and it may have had inside knowledge. One of the suppliers of biological weapons components to Iraq was the United States itself, in particular during the Iran/Iraq war. (From the Associated Press [1].) It was reported the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and a biological sample company, the American Type Culture Collection, sent strains of anthrax, the bacteria that make botulinum toxin, the germs that cause gas gangrene, and samples of other deadly pathogens, including the West Nile virus, directly to several Iraqi sites.
In January 2003, United Nations weapons inspectors reported that they had found no indication that Iraq had a currently active program to make nuclear weapons, and that there was no credible evidence that Iraq possessed nuclear weapons.
Some former UNSCOM inspectors disagree about whether the United States could know for certain whether or not Iraq had renewed production of weapons of mass destruction. Robert Gallucci said, "If Iraq had [uranium or plutonium], a fair assessment would be they could fabricate a nuclear weapon, and there's no reason for us to assume we'd find out if they had." Similarly, former inspector Jonathan Tucker said, "Nobody really knows what Iraq has. You really can't tell from a satellite image what's going on inside a factory."
Ritter also made new statements in 2002 which seem to contradict statements he made in 1998. It is unclear why his opinion changed so drastically in four years without inspections.
However, a UN weapons inspector, Hans Blix, said in late January 2003 that Iraq had "not genuinely accepted U.N. resolutions demanding that it disarm." [1]. He claimed there were some materials which had not been accounted for.
The carefully-worded U.N. resolution put the burden on Iraq, not U.N. inspectors, to prove that they no longer had weapons of mass destruction. Iraq's weapons report which was filed with the U.N. leaves weapons and materials unaccounted for. According to reports from the previous U.N. inspection agency, UNSCOM, Iraq had 600 metric tons of chemical agents, including mustard gas, VX and sarin, and nearly 25,000 rockets and 15,000 artillery shells, with chemical agents, that are still unaccounted for. In fact, in 1995, Iraq told the United Nations that it had produced at least 30,000 liters of biological agents, including anthrax and other toxins it could put on missiles.
Final Reckoning and Hindsight
Prior to the invasion, the United States said that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, and that it must either give them all up or undergo a regime change. However, immediately prior to the invasion, the United States made a further demand that Saddam Hussein step down from power and vacate Iraq. Still later, the United States announced that even if Saddam Hussein abdicated and his government was changed, it would send in forces to verify disarmament and oversee the transition to a new government. Iraq variously claimed that it never had any WMD, or that it had gotten rid of them all (and asserted that it was thus in compliance with United States and United Nation demands).
Some said before the invasion that if Iraq were to prove credibly that it no longer had such capability, by allowing unfettered access to inspectors and permitting the destruction of WMD stocks and production facilities as they were found, the primary claimed justification for the proposed US invasion would vanish.
April
As of April 16, 2003, Iraq's Baath regime had fallen to the invasion, all major cities have been captured, and no weapons of mass destruction had been reported found. As of April 24, 2003, the United States had started backing off[1] on the search for weapons of mass destruction. Although no WMDs have yet been found, UNMOVIC chief inspector Hans Blix has called for UN inspections to resume.[1]
May
On May 30, 2003, Paul Wolfowitz stated in an interview with Vanity Fair magazine that the issue of weapons of mass destruction was the point of greatest agreement among Bush's team among the reasons to remove Saddam Hussein from power. In Vanity Fair, he said, "The truth is that for reasons that have a lot to do with the U.S. government bureaucracy, we settled on the one issue that everyone could agree on, which was weapons of mass destruction as the core reason..." The remainder of the quote, which was not included in the article, is as follows, according to a Pentagon transcript: "...but, there have always been three fundamental concerns. One is weapons of mass destruction, the second is support for terrorism, the third is the criminal treatment of the Iraqi people. Actually I guess you could say there's a fourth overriding one which is the connection between the first two." [1] The same day, General James Conway, senior Marine commander in Iraq, expressed similar thoughts in a satellite interview with reporters at the Pentagon.
June
Various nuclear facilities, including the Baghdad Nuclear Research Facility and Tuwaitha Nuclear Research Center, were found looted in the month following the invasion. On June 20, 2003, the International Atomic Energy Agency reported that tons of uranium had been recovered, and that the vast majority had remained on site. By June 7, 2003, many American and British media sources [1] [1] began questioning the credibility of the Bush administration, and John Dean even brought up the possibility of impeachment [1] for "lying to Congress and the American people", although this idea has largely fallen by the wayside since some members of Congress had access to much of the same information as the White House. Bush suggests that all the documents and suspected weapons sites were looted and burned in Iraq by looters in the final days of the war before the US could find them. [1]
July
On July 17, 2003, the British Prime Minister Tony Blair said in an address to the US congress, that history would forgive the United States and United Kingdom, even if they were wrong about weapons of mass destruction. He still maintained that "with every fiber of instinct and conviction" Iraq did have weapons of mass destruction.
October
On October 3, 2003, the world digests David Kay's Iraq Survey Group report that finds little evidence of WMD in Iraq, although the regime did intend to develop more weapons with additional capabilities. Such plans and programs appear to have been dormant, the existence of these were though concealed from the United Nations during the inspections that began in 2002. Weapons inspectors in Iraq do find clandestine "network of biological laboratories" and a deadly strain of botulinum. The US-sponsored search for WMD has so far cost $300 million and is projected to cost around $600 million more.
On October 29 U.S. intelligence spokesmen claimed that Iraqi WMDs and programmes had been comprehensively hidden before or immediately after the fall of Bagdhad, with some elements of the programmes being shipped out of the country.

The means of production refers, in Marxist economics and its modern derivatives, to infrastructural capital and natural capital, the classical factors of production deliberately minus financial capital (according to Marx a delusion) and minus human capital or labor. When used in modern terms it usually applies to land or commons being converted to natural resources, and to that infrastructural capital which is not owned strictly in common but is applied to make "goods". The Marxist analysis does not distinguish between infrastructural and natural means of production, and seems to assume natural capital to be limitless.
Karl Marx focused on labor questions: He considered it immoral to treat labor as just another "factor" in production, and in his analysis he chose the word "means" apparently to emphasize that labor actually acquires and applies the instructions and skills, and directly uses the tools and infrastructure - as the "proletariat". Raw human capital without these skills he termed the "lumpen proletariat".
There are parallels in analysis by modern feminist economists, notably Marilyn Waring who argues that women's work has been systematically devalued and undervalued, while education and training sufficient to use the "means" deemed most valuable by society have traditionally gone to men. She sarcastically parallels two very different ideas of "value" by focusing on village women in a developing nation whose day is defined by the search for clean water and dry firewood, and a man in a U.S. missile silo, whose day is defined waiting for orders to destroy the Soviet Union. She argues, in general, that woman is to man as lumpen is to proletariat, but does not use those terms herself, evidently to avoid offending the Marxists:
Marx's terms are still employed in "left" economic analysis by socialist parties who advocate extending public ownership of such "means". The affinity between labor movement causes and this advocacy is very strong - and often shared by Social democrats, socialists, communists and greens. Marx's analysis in particular helped to make clear the key differences between human capital and "labor" or "human resources" - which earlier political economy favoring labor value had not done, e.g. that of David Ricardo.
Some green economists, notably Brian Milani, analogize Marx's treatment of labor to natural capital, accepting Marx's view that land is a means, but not a simple factor, of production. Others go further to argue that land, more fully regarded as natural capital must be seen as a sort of "lumpen proletariat" performing ecological work.
Still others, including many following neoclassical economics, argue that nothing that is alive (land, labor) and therefore negentropic can be counted as a "means" for anything else that is alive and negentropic - and reject the Marxist terms of reference entirely. There is thus a dispute on convergence between the idea of "means of production" and the modern general notion of capital; Marx's analysis has been important in refining the factors of production wherein individual and natural (alive, natural, creative) actors are kept separate from instructional, social, infrastructural and financial (unliving, entropic, imitative "means") "factors", at least to some degree... notably in the analyses of Natural Capitalism and some macro-economics which study the choice (by people) to do work, or take recreation:
In the analysis of Baldassari and Acquisti, any living actor may choose to use or not use a "means", but an unliving "factor" can only take orders from above, robotically, without any capacity to question. Or, indeed, any capacity to take or choose to do harm. There is thus a clear distinction between a "means", including autonomous intellectual capital, and a "factor" whose detailed choices are defined by passive instructional capital and limits of infrastructural capital. This analysis avoids however the problem of individual capital or "enterprise" or "ingenuity", and how choices to act or not act work in the large to define roles or rules.
This type of analysis derived from Marx seems most applicable to highly automated production exploiting robotics and just in time learning. Marx's "lumpen proletariat" thus continues to exist in at least three newly recognized forms: women especially in developing nations, the living natural capital of Earth's ecoregions, and the robotic behavior of low-skilled service workers doing "McJobs". Those capable or permitted to make at least the choice not to work, rise to Marx's "proletariat" level, and can rightly be said to be employing other factors as a "means" - including as "means" potentially the more passive unskilled worker and the land itself.
Some theorists emphasize the "driving down" of decision-making power "closer to the customer" as making the role of bourgeois (detailed decision maker absorbing blame and financial risk for owners) and proletariat more alike. This would not affect however the basic idea of means of production, rather: It would simply render it ambiguous where means began and factors end. In particular, the role of those who employ only financial capital and do not directly use the other factors of production remains distinct, and the most significant feature of capitalism, in the Marxist analyses - in effect the ruling class monopolize the means of protection, thus of property law enforcement, which keeps the financial capital valuable and convertible into the means of production: all other forms of capital.
The central tenant of distributism is that of a market society where the majority are possessed of the means of production.

A producer is a person leading the production of a film, movie or television show.Some producers are:
A producer is the common term in Britain for the request by the police to present documents at a local police station, having been stopped while driving without documents earlier. The form issued is a HO/RT1. Under the Road Traffic Act (1988) it is an offence to drive without certain documents, but it is reasonable to present them as soon as possible thereafter. The required documents - driving licence, insurance certificate and MOT certificate must be produced at a police station within seven days. Failure to produce the documents in a timely manner can result in a fine. In economics a producer is an individual or organization that creates goods or services.

Production is the act of making things, in particular the act of making productss that will be traded or sold commercially. Production decisions concentrate on what goods to produce, how to produce them, the costs of producing them, and optimizing the mix of resource inputs used in their production. This production information can then be combined with market information (like demand and marginal revenue) to determine the quantity of products to produce and the optimum price to charge.

In the music industry, "record producer" designates a person responsible for completing a master recording so that it is fit for release. In earlier days, record producers bore the title of A&R men, for Artists and Repertory, which gives a clearer picture of their function: controlling the artists and choosing the material.In the first part of the 20th century, the record producer's role resembled that of a film producer, in that the record producer supervised recording sessions, paid technicians, musicians and arrangers, and sometimes chose material for the artist. By the 1960s, record producers took a more direct role in the musical process, including arranging, engineering the recording, and even writing the material. Through it all, record producers have had a strong influence, not only on individual careers, but on the course of popular music.

This technique has helped identify activated oncogenes in cancer cells, and their normal counterparts in normal cells, in many different species. In this photograph, a labeled DNA segment (a known oncogene) has been put into a mouse oocyte, a cell that develops into a mature egg cell. The labeled DNA has paired with (or hybridized to) multiple copies of RNA in the mouse oocyte. The presence of this RNA (shown here as black dots inside the nucleus of the immature cell) shows that the normal cellular counterpart of the oncogene is active, suggesting that it is critical for normal germ cell development. Expression of genes is manifested by the production of RNA transcripts within cells. Hybridization histochemistry (in situ hybridization) permits localization of these transcripts with cellular or greater resolution. Furthermore, the relative amounts of transcripts detected within different tissues or the same tissues under different states (e.g., physiological or developmental) may be quantified.
