NIGP 37024: Huller, Pea and Bean

NIGP 37024 Huller, Pea And Bean is an Item code under which state and local governments procure mechanical equipment designed to remove hulls from legumes — peas, beans, and related crops. The code covers the purchase or lease of specialized agricultural processing machinery used primarily by agricultural departments, extension services, food-processing facilities operated by state or local entities, and institutional food-service operations that process dried legumes in bulk. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring new hulling equipment, replacement components, and maintenance contracts for existing machinery; activity typically appears in agricultural modernization programs, school-district food-service upgrades, and state-level agricultural commodity processing initiatives.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities under this Item code. Procurement activity in specialized agricultural processing equipment such as legume hullers tends to be infrequent and geographically dispersed; buying cycles align with equipment replacement schedules and capital-improvement budget cycles rather than recurring annual solicitations. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor agricultural departments and larger institutional food-service buyers in states with significant dried-bean or split-pea production or consumption, and track RFP and IFB cycles at state agriculture agencies and university agricultural extension programs during their budget planning seasons.
