UNSPSC 50436501: Dried organic green globe turnips

The variety of organic turnips known as organic green globe turnips that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436501 Dried organic green globe turnips (Commodity) does not see material recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The most recent opportunities on file for this code are instead tagged for kidney beans, pinto and red beans, black beans, and general cafeteria or institutional food-supply buys; none name dried turnips or turnip products specifically. The code shows a mismatch between its taxonomy definition and current procurement use.

State and local issuing bodies that have used related dried-legume and institutional-food codes include the Georgia Department of Corrections (kidney beans, RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections (dried pinto and red beans, approximately 42,500 pounds, due June 19, 2026), the City of Edinburg, Texas (institutional meal-service supplies for child and adult care, RFP 2026-017), the State of Illinois (quarterly food orders), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (cafeteria food products across five warehouse regions, IFB 304T26300CF, due May 4, 2026). Corrections departments and institutional-meal programs dominate recent solicitation volume. Given the mismatch between the code's stated commodity (dried organic green globe turnips) and the legume-focused and general food-supply opportunities currently tagged under it, pursuit of this code should be deferred pending clarification of how state and local buyers are actually indexing turnip and root-vegetable procurements in their systems.
