We study a general linear quadratic mean field type control problem and\nconnect it to mean field games of a similar type. The solution is given both in\nterms of a forward/backward system of stochastic differential equations and by\na pair of Riccati equations. In certain cases, the solution to the mean field\ntype control is also the equilibrium strategy for a class of mean field games.\nWe use this fact to study an economic model of production of exhaustible\nresources.\n Keywords: mean field type control, mean field games, linear-quadratic,\noptimal control, riccati equations, exhaustible resource production\n
