UNSPSC 10151541: Nettle seed or seedlings

Urtica genus plant seed of the urticaceae family. It reaches a height of 50 to 150 cm

UNSPSC 10151541 Nettle seed or seedlings is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show a mismatch with the code's nominal scope. The source records seed purchases that fall outside nettle seed entirely—wheat grass seed, beardless wheat seed, sorghum sudan grass seed, cotton seed, and soybean seed procured by cities, correctional agencies, and state departments for farm operations, grounds maintenance, and agricultural production. One opportunity tagged to this code (DeKalb County's tennis center reconstruction) involves IT and low-voltage infrastructure and bears no relation to seed procurement whatsoever. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with nettle seed procurement specifically.

The geographic spread of actual seed purchases spans Texas, Georgia, and Kentucky, with the City of Lubbock, Texas appearing as a repeat buyer posting two wheat seed RFQs (Jose Wheat Grass Seed and Beardless Wheat Seed VNS, both due July 16, 2026). Georgia Correctional Industries procured cotton seed in March 2026 (contract awarded to Triangle Chemical Company at $57,994.00), and the Commonwealth of Kentucky's Department of Corrections issued an RFB for soybean seed for the Western Kentucky Correctional Complex Farm (due March 13, 2026), offering Kentucky resident and nonprofit set-asides. The Lubbock RFQ for Sorghum Sudan Grass Seed (due April 1, 2026) sought 45,000 pounds at 85 percent minimum germination for delivery in bulk bags by April 16, 2026. The absence of nettle seed solicitations and the presence of unrelated opportunities suggests this code may be experiencing tagging inconsistency in state and local procurement systems or carries minimal current activity in the target market.
