UNSPSC 21101711: Corn sheller

A machine that detaches grains such as corn, beans and peanuts from the heart or stalk.

UNSPSC 21101711 Corn sheller, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The source contains one directly relevant opportunity: the University of Georgia's October 2026 RFQ for two Wintersteiger Quantum Pro plot combines, parts, and services—equipment used in agricultural research and crop testing rather than corn shelling specifically. The remaining three opportunities in the source are either unrelated (a law enforcement equipment cooperative procurement, a school district food supply bid, and a Williamson County purchasing department relocation notice) or do not match the code's intended commodity. State and local governments tagging opportunities under this code do not appear to be procuring standalone corn shellers or corn shelling equipment with regularity.

The University of Georgia's RFQ, due October 20, 2026, represents the sole substantive recent state-local opportunity indexed under this code. It seeks quotes for plot combines—specialized harvesting equipment for small-plot research and breeding trials—with delivery required to Perry and Tifton, Georgia. Award will go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting specifications, with FOB Destination pricing including shipping. Beyond this single Georgia-based solicitation, the code shows no discernible geographic concentration or pattern of repeat issuing bodies. The mismatch between the code's name and actual procurement activity suggests either misclassification of the Georgia opportunity or that this Commodity code sees sufficiently sparse use that state and local buyers rarely tag corn-shelling work to it.
