Morphology

unproducible = producible (transparent) = un + produce + ible

The prefix 'un-' clearly negates the meaning of 'producible', making the word's meaning easily inferable.

Etymology

The word unproducible is made of un- meaning 'not' and produce meaning 'to make' or 'create', the same root as product. So unproducible means 'not able to be made'.
