UNSPSC 10151600: Cereal seeds

UNSPSC 10151600 Cereal seeds is a Class code under which state and local governments procure seed varieties for agricultural operations, grounds maintenance, and farm management. The scope of work spans specific named seed types — wheat grass varieties, sorghum sudan grass seed, soybean seed, and cotton seed — purchased in bulk quantities and delivered to municipal parks, correctional farm facilities, and grounds management sites. Issuing bodies include city procurement offices, state correctional departments and industries programs, and county parks departments. The mix reflects both municipal grounds-keeping needs and correctional-system agricultural operations that sustain on-site farming programs.
