UNSPSC 50221120: Morocho starchy corn

One of the varieties of corn with the greatest productive distribution, they are differentiated by their yield and quality, cultivated in the high Andean areas of the sierra, with tolerance to the scarcity of rain and adaptation to this climate, which has its origin in the provinces of Chota, Cajabamba and Cajamarca in Peru.

UNSPSC 50221120 Morocho starchy corn, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities recorded in the source material. The recent opportunities under this code are mislabeled: the actual solicitations cover fresh produce (including fruits, vegetables, and bulk starches), prepared foods, food service supplies, and institutional cafeteria provisions for state agencies, school districts, and correctional facilities—none of which are morocho corn specifically. The source contains no bids, RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs for morocho starchy corn as a distinct product line.

The issuing bodies soliciting produce-related goods in the dataset span Texas Health and Human Services Commission (state supported living centers), Texas Department of Criminal Justice (correctional food warehouses), state departments of education and school districts across Georgia (Bartow County Schools, Dougherty County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bryan County Schools), Illinois Department of Corrections and Department of Mental Health, Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), Head Start of Greater Dallas (federal program administrator), and the City of San Antonio. The majority of recent activity clusters in Texas and Georgia school nutrition programs and state institutional food services. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHS Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (consumables and prepared foods for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026), the Illinois Department of Corrections RFQ 27426DOCJOLIEB53849 (fresh produce for Joliet Treatment Center, due September 3, 2026), and Bryan County Schools' sealed bid for fresh produce (due May 27, 2026). The code shows substantial recent procurement activity, but none specifically for morocho starchy corn as a commodity. Firms pursuing this code should clarify whether the code assignment reflects an actual demand signal or a data entry error, as the mismatch between code and recorded opportunities makes pursuit assessment unreliable without direct contact with issuing bodies.
