Make hibernate ignore class variables that are not mapped [duplicate]

by

I thought hibernate takes into consideration only class variables that are annotated with @Column. But strangely today when I added a variable (that is not mapped to any column, just a variable i need in the class), it is trying to include that variable in the select statement as a column name and throws the error –

Unknown column ‘team1_.agencyName’ in ‘field list’

My class – 

@Entity
@Table(name="team")
public class Team extends BaseObject implements Serializable {

@Id  @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
private Long id;

@Column(length=50)
private String name;

@Column(length=10)
private String code;

@Column(name = "agency_id")
private Long agencyId;

private String agencyName; //note: not annotated.

}

FYI…I use the above class in another class with many to many mapping

@ManyToMany(fetch = FetchType.EAGER) 
@JoinTable(
        name="user_team",
        joinColumns = { @JoinColumn( name="user_id") },
        inverseJoinColumns = @JoinColumn( name="team_id")
)    
public Set<Team> getTeams() {
    return teams;
}

Why is this happening?!
