Production is the process of creating goods and services,
Or adding value to existing goods to satisfy human wants.
It combines land, labour, capital, and entrepreneurship,
To make products available for consumption or trade.
Verse 1 (factors)
Land is nature’s precious gift,
Where all production starts to lift.
Labour works with heart and hand,
To shape the wealth across the land.
Verse 2 (factors)
Capital gives the tools to build,
Machines and funds that dreams can fill.
Entrepreneurs plan, lead, and dare,
Combining all with vision and care.
Verse 3 (importance)
It provides goods and services too,
Creates employment for me and you.
Living standards rise each day,
As nations grow in every way.
Verse 4 (importance)
It brings specialization’s call,
Generates income for one and all.
Promotes trade across the lands,
Reduces imports by our hands.
