UNSPSC 50416502: Organic golden ball turnips

The variety of organic turnips known as organic golden ball turnips

UNSPSC 50416502 Organic golden ball turnips, a Commodity code, shows limited recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The sole direct reference to organic turnips does not appear in any of the recent solicitations; instead, the code has been tagged to broad fresh-produce procurements serving school nutrition programs, state operations, and child nutrition initiatives. State and local governments buy fresh produce under this code through school districts, state education departments, and county school systems, but the recent opportunities reflect generic produce categories (apples, bananas, carrots, lettuce, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, eggs, and seasonal fruits and vegetables) rather than specialty organic items like golden ball turnips.

Recent solicitations span Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida. Glynn County Board of Education (IFB 27-02, due April 14, 2026), Muscogee County School District (ITB 26-017, due April 27, 2026), and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Bid 26-34, due April 23, 2026) all solicited produce for school nutrition on an annual contract basis with weekly or monthly deliveries. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas (RFP 2026-048, due May 7, 2026) requested USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable fresh produce with Texas-grown preferences. The State of Georgia (IFB #4 2027-2026, due May 27, 2026) issued a fresh-produce invitation, and Early County Board of Education (due June 8, 2026) sought line-by-line food bids with emphasis on domestic sourcing and low-sodium formulations. The code sees steady activity in school nutrition procurement but no demonstrated demand for organic specialty turnips specifically; vendors pursuing this code should confirm whether state and local procurement offices actually specify organic varieties or specialty items, as the current activity suggests commodity-grade bulk produce for institutional dining.
