Measurements of the production cross section for top quark pairs and the single top quark by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the LHC are presented. Improved measurements at sqrt(s)=7 TeV as well as new measurements at sqrt(s)=8 TeV are highlighted. All the measurements are in good agreement with the standard model predictions.
