UNSPSC 50431605: Dried organic martha washington asparagus

The variety of organic asparagus known as organic martha washington asparagus that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50431605 Dried organic martha washington asparagus (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The source records show no solicitations for dried asparagus, organic or otherwise; instead, the opportunities cite school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and other institutional food service buying dried beans, fresh produce, cafeteria staples, and grocery items spanning broad produce and protein categories with no mention of asparagus of any type.

The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement systems or that this Commodity code rarely surfaces in active state and local solicitations. The opportunities posted under the code in the past six months—spanning Texas, Illinois, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia—focus on bulk dried legumes (pinto and red beans), fresh fruits and vegetables, school nutrition supplies, and institutional food service fulfillment. These are foundational food-service inputs for child nutrition programs, correctional departments, and school districts, none of which reference dried asparagus as a line item. Without representative recent opportunities for this specific Commodity, the code shows minimal activity relevant to asparagus supply chains and does not present a clear purchasing pattern for business development focus.
