Land encompasses all the nonhuman gifts of nature, including timber,water, fish, minerals, and the original fertility of land. It is often called the natural resource. Labor is the human resource, which includes productive contributions made by individuals who work, such as Web page designers, ballet dancers, and professional football players. Physical capital consists of the factories and equipment used in production. It also includes improvements to natural resources, such as irrigation ditches.
