Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

Primary productivity refers to the ability of producers (that is, vegetables) to capture and assimilate solar energy. This solar energy is quickly used in the metabolic processes of the producer's organism, but a part of it is reserved to produce biomass and plant growth.

This process requires large intensities of solar energy and rapid conversion of that energy in order to establish a strong primary productivity.
