Diatoms are referred to as producers because they carry out photosynthesis which is the process of converting CO2 into organic carbon. This in turn feeds the rest of the trophic levels in the ecosystem.
The term 'chief' refers to the fact that in many surface ocean environments diatoms are present in highest numbers compared to other photosynthetic organisms.
