UNSPSC 50431922: Dried organic sugar beets

The variety of organic beets known as organic sugar beets that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50431922 Dried organic sugar beets (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The code name describes a highly specific agricultural commodity—organic sugar beets in dried form—yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span broad food-service procurement including fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous grocery items across child nutrition programs, school districts, correctional facilities, and state operations. The mismatch between the code's narrow definition and the actual solicitations suggests either categorization drift in state and local systems or that this code serves as a catch-all for diverse food commodity purchases rather than a dedicated channel for dried sugar beet supply.

The most recent opportunities tied to this code originate from Georgia (state and school districts), Texas (state and municipal child nutrition services), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Missouri (school district), Illinois (state operations), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Among these, Oregon's Department of Corrections has posted two ITBs specifically for dried beans (pinto and red, approximately 42,500 to 127,500 pounds each, with March 2026 and June 2026 due dates), which is the closest match to dried commodity procurement under this code. School nutrition programs dominate the solicitation landscape, with Fairfax County Public Schools (IFB 2000004323, Master Grocery K-12, due April 27, 2026), Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri (Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items 2026-2027, due April 29, 2026), and multiple Georgia school districts (Muscogee County ITB 26-017, Savannah-Chatham County Bid 26-34, and Douglas County RFP SN 26-004) all soliciting produce, proteins, and staple items for meal programs. Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) procurement through the City of Edinburg, Texas (RFP 2026017, due August 4, 2026) and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products (IFB 304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) round out the recent activity, indicating that this code captures institutional food service supply across diverse public bodies rather than organic dried sugar beet sourcing in particular.
