unfruitfulness

Lack of produce

Unfruitfulness is the state of not producing fruit, offspring, or results.

Land that yields no crops shows unfruitfulness; a marriage without children may be described the same way.

The word often appears in religious or literary contexts to describe spiritual barrenness or wasted effort: The unfruitfulness of his labor discouraged him.
