UNSPSC 50417067: Organic yautia

The type of organic vegetable known as organic yautia

UNSPSC 50417067 Organic yautia, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally covers a tropical root vegetable (yautia or malanga), yet no posted solicitations specifically request organic yautia or yautia-family products. Instead, recent opportunities tagged under or near this code pursue institutional fresh produce supply—the sourcing of broad commodity vegetables and fruits for school nutrition programs—which falls outside the scope of a single specialized root crop.

The recent solicitations on file involve school districts and county boards of education across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida procuring fresh produce for child nutrition services, farm-to-school initiatives, and federally funded fruit and vegetable programs. Representative opportunities include Early County Board of Education (RFP for line-by-line food bids due June 8, 2026), Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas (RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce, due May 7, 2026), Bulloch County School District in Georgia (IFP for locally grown produce within 200 miles, due May 4, 2026), and Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa, Florida (RFP 26039RFPDST for fresh fruit and vegetable program delivery, due March 11, 2026). These procurements typically emphasize broad fresh-produce portfolios—apples, bananas, carrots, broccoli, peppers, berries, leafy greens, citrus, potatoes, and eggs—with weekly or twice-weekly delivery to multiple school sites, HACCP certification, Buy American compliance, and firm pricing. The code shows no relevant recent activity specifically targeting organic yautia or specialty root vegetables; the UNSPSC assignment appears misaligned with actual state and local purchasing patterns in this category.
