More productivity is the goal of the search. I think the unit of thought should either be "the search for more productivity" or "more productivity", but not "for more productivity".

It's like "the search for hidden treasure". It's simply the object of the preposition.

If we rephrase it to say,
A rapid population increase drives the search for more productivity
it becomes self evident: A rapid increase in population [an increase of people] creates a push for more productivity, or, gives people the drive, or motivation, to find ways to become more productive [in tandem with population growth].
Productivity might refer to producing more food, more housing, more living needs, etc.
