UNSPSC 10161906: Dried grass plumes

UNSPSC 10161906 Dried grass plumes, a Commodity code, captures ornamental and ecological planting materials used in state and local environmental restoration, landscaping, and recreational programs. The code shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope; the two most recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code diverge substantially from dried grass plumes procurement. Pinellas County's five-year environmental services contract (RFP 250628RFP, due July 29, 2025) centers on native plant installation, invasive species removal, and wetland monitoring across mitigation sites and stormwater facilities—work that involves live native plantings from a 150-species roster rather than dried ornamental grasses. Columbus Consolidated Government's annual arts and craft supplies bid (RFB 26-0014, due February 25, 2026) procures general hobby and recreational materials for parks and recreation programming, with no mention of horticultural materials. Neither opportunity represents typical dried grass plumes purchasing.

Activity under this code appears limited. The Pinellas County and Columbus opportunities represent different issuing-body types—a county environmental department and a city parks recreation division—but neither reflects procurement of the material the code nominally describes. Without additional recent solicitations demonstrating genuine dried grass plumes demand, the code signals either sparse state and local purchasing of this commodity or systematic miscoding of environmental and recreational procurement. Firms evaluating this code should verify whether actual dried grass plumes purchasing exists in their target markets before committing business development resources, as the available record does not support a clear pipeline of relevant opportunities.
