Fecund and its synonyms fruitful and fertile all mean producing or capable of producing offspring or fruit-literally or figuratively. Fecund applies to things that yield offspring, fruit, or results in abundance or with rapidity (a fecund herd; a fecund imagination). Fruitful emphasizes abundance, too, and often adds the implication that the results attained are desirable or useful (fruitful plains; a fruitful discussion).
