UNSPSC 10152102: Residues of rape seeds

UNSPSC 10152102 Residues of rape seeds (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally covers agricultural byproducts from rapeseed processing, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code center on landscape sod, erosion control seeding, and wildflower seed supply — none of which are rape seed residues. Hillsborough County Public Schools is soliciting grass and sod services including Argentine Bahia, St. Augustine Floratam, Bermuda varieties, and related installation labor under ITB 26293-ITB-MST (response due August 20, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners is requesting turfgrass sod supply, delivery, and installation across roadway rights-of-way, medians, parks, and athletic fields under ITB 268696 (response due November 9, 2026); and Sacramento County Department of Waste Management and Recycling solicited erosion control hydroseeding services for landfill slopes under RFB 2026-RFB-0049. The Harris County Flood Control District posted an ITB for various wildflower seed and related items (response due August 31, 2026), and the Forest Preserve District of Kane County requested individually bagged native seed ecotypes sourced within 200 miles of Kane County, Illinois (response due August 11, 2026). Orange County, Florida also solicited Sodding, Seeding, and Mulching services including hydro-seeding and Bonded Fiber Matrix applications under IFB Y26-154 (response due May 28, 2026).

The issuing bodies include school districts, county departments, county boards of commissioners, and regional conservation districts across Florida, California, Texas, Illinois, and Georgia. However, the activities being procured — landscaping sod installation, erosion control via hydroseeding, and native wildflower seed — do not constitute rape seed residues as the code nominally defines them. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work in recent opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding by soliciting agencies or a data error. Firms pursuing agricultural byproduct sourcing should note that this Commodity code does not currently reflect active demand for rape seed residues at the state and local level based on available posting records.
