Nothing; it makes the food which supports the rest of the food chain, which is why it's referred to as a "producer".

Not all producers are photosynthetic (producing food energy from sunlight and CO2). Some are chaemosynthetic (producing food energy from other chemical reactions). Examples include those near black smokers (no jokes about BA and a cigar please) and in a few caves.  Those near black smokers support a rather large food chain.
