Someone or something that yields a crop or other product
1903, Charles William Burkett et al., Agriculture for Beginners Chapter , Just as with the Irish potato, it is important to know how good a yielder you are planting.
1915, Australia Department of External Affairs, Wheat Growing in Australia Chapter , This variety is a very heavy yielder, has good drought-resistant qualities, and withstands wind and weather so well that it may be said to be storm-proof.
1909, Robert Fitzgerald, The Statesmen Snowbound Chapter , I am a modest man, sir, and hesitate to talk about myself even among friends; but since you all insist, there is nothing for me to do but yield as gracefully as I may--and as a yielder I glitter in the front rank.
