UNSPSC 10161834: Beet plant

Plant from the chenopodioideae family, commonly known as beets, beterrada, beets, white chard, beteraba and betarava. It is used as food and in the sugar industry.

UNSPSC 10161834 Beet plant, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. Of six posted opportunities in the source block, only one—Collier County's ITB 26-8667 for plants, trees, and shrubs for the Pelican Bay Services Division, due July 8, 2026—involves procurement of ornamental plant materials at scale, and that solicitation encompasses broad landscaping stock rather than beet plants specifically. The remaining opportunities address coastal dune restoration (native Florida species), invasive plant removal, interior commercial plantings, and educational supplies—none of which involve beet plant procurement or cultivation. The code does not map to the actual purchasing pattern reflected in recent state and local solicitations.

The one tangentially relevant opportunity—Collier County's three-year term contract for ornamental plants, shrubs, grasses, and sod with historical annual expenditures near $300,000—targets landscape beautification and maintenance, not agricultural or horticultural crops. Geographic activity in the source cluster centers on Florida (Collier County, Monroe County) and Georgia (DeKalb County, City of Fairburn), with a single Texas education cooperative opportunity unrelated to plant materials. The source provides no evidence of active state and local procurement demand for beet plants or beet seeds under this code. Practitioners should verify whether beet plant procurement is categorized elsewhere within the UNSPSC taxonomy or confirm that the code assignment in recent opportunities reflects an administrative mismatch rather than substantive buying activity.
