UNSPSC 10151909: Mutuy seed or seedling

Tree seed with bright yellow flowers, of the leguminous family

UNSPSC 10151909 Mutuy seed or seedling, a Commodity code, covers the supply of native and specialty seeds to state and local agencies for habitat restoration, land management, and botanical conservation. State and local governments buy seeds under this code primarily through blanket contracts and standing offers that allow as-needed ordering for ecological restoration projects, wildflower plantings, and invasive species management. The issuing bodies are primarily state natural-resource departments and county environmental agencies, which solicit seeds in standardized unit-price format with delivery to designated regional offices. Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has issued multiple IFBs for native prairie seed supply covering grass and forb species in specified quantities; Texas A&M Forest Service also posted an IFB for East Texas Seeds. Dane County, Wisconsin, in conjunction with Mattoon Village, conducted a surplus seed procurement for cream gentian in May 2026. These agencies typically structure awards as single or multiple-vendor contracts, evaluate bids on lowest price and vendor qualifications, require FOB destination pricing with all shipping included, impose fourteen-day delivery windows, and reserve the right to adjust quantities or cancel orders based on budget constraints and performance.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Wisconsin. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department issued at least two blanket-contract IFBs for native prairie seeds (posted August 5, 2026 and September 1, 2026, with response deadlines August 12 and September 15 respectively), specifying fifty species ranging from Big Bluestem and Switchgrass to Purple Prairie Clover, with anticipated annual usage from 1 to 200 pounds per species. Both contracts run September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027, with twelve-month renewal options and price escalation allowed if tied to the Producer Price Index. Texas A&M Forest Service posted IFB-27-005 for East Texas Seeds on October 15, 2026, with bids due October 30, 2026; scope details were not disclosed in available documents. Dane County and Mattoon Village conducted a surplus cream gentian seed sale (RFB 2026RFB043PR, posted May 11, 2026, due June 2, 2026) with eight seed lots tested by the Wisconsin Crop Improvement Association, showing purity from 61.46% to 71.62% and germination rates of 89% to 97%.
