UNSPSC 21101611: Fertilizer flow rate controller

A type of equipment that automatically controls the timing and quantity of fertilizer dispensed in agricultural operations.

UNSPSC 21101611 Fertilizer flow rate controller, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve grounds maintenance chemical supply, landscape services, and school food procurement — none of which concern fertilizer application equipment or flow-rate control devices. The single opportunity with direct fertilizer purchase scope — the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's procurement of 18 tons of corn fertilizer for Sauvie Island Wildlife Area — specifies a finished product (26-12-10-4 fertilizer blend) for direct application, not a controller or metering device. The code's nominal scope does not align with the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this tag.

Activity under the code spans Florida, California, Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, but issuing bodies include city and county governments, school districts, and state natural-resource agencies. The City of DeBary, Florida, issued an ITB for agricultural chemicals and ballfield products in 2019; Sacramento County, California, released an RFB for grounds maintenance chemicals and seeds with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $435,000; Pasco County, Florida, issued an IFB for herbicides, fertilizers, and pesticides with a contract period through September 30, 2029; and the City of Lubbock, Texas, released an RFP for landscape and grounds maintenance services at police stations. No indication of concentrated repeat buying or standout procurement patterns under this specific code appears in the recent record. Unless your firm supplies fertilizer flow-rate control hardware or precision metering devices to state and local agencies — a market segment not evident in these opportunities — this code does not represent actionable procurement activity.
