UNSPSC 50435402: Dried organic pinkeye peas

The variety of organic peas known as organic pinkeye peas that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435402 Dried organic pinkeye peas (Commodity) does not reflect active state and local procurement activity in the recent record. The code's name specifies organic pinkeye peas, but the thirteen state and local opportunities posted in the past six months show school districts, corrections departments, and child nutrition programs soliciting dried beans generically—dried pinto beans and dried pinto and red beans combined—without organic certification or pinkeye variety specification. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate solicitations for dried pinto and dried pinto-and-red-bean blends in March and June 2026, both triple-cleaned and U.S. No. 2 or better grade, FOB destination to Salem; neither mentioned organic status or pinkeye variety. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice's broader cafeteria food products IFB (304T26300CF, due May 4, 2026) encompasses proteins and staples across 382 line items but does not isolate dried beans as a named category. School district grocery and meal-program solicitations—from Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County Schools, and Savannah-Chatham County—focus on fresh produce, milk, cheese, meats, prepared entrees, and general grocery items; dried beans do not appear as line-item solicitations in any of them.

The issuing bodies are predominantly state corrections departments and K-12 school districts across Texas, Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, Georgia, and Illinois. The corrections sector shows the only recent dried-bean procurement specificity: Oregon DOC's two ITBs (March and June 2026) for pinto beans, both requiring triple-cleaned product meeting U.S. standards, with the June procurement seeking 42,500 pounds at historical pricing of approximately $0.43–$0.493 per pound. School nutrition programs in the same geography and time window solicited broad grocery and produce categories but did not separately bid dried peas or beans. No recent solicitation explicitly mentions organic certification, pinkeye variety, or anything matching the code's nominal scope. Pursuit of this code requires direct outreach to state corrections procurement offices in Oregon and Texas and to school nutrition directors; posted opportunities do not support active market demand for the commodity as specified.
