UNSPSC 50436708: Dried organic potato yams

The variety of organic yams known as organic potato yams that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436708 Dried organic potato yams (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope; state and local procurement under this code does not appear in the recent opportunities block. The few opportunities posted under or near this code tier actually solicit dried legumes—kidney beans, black beans, and pinto and red beans—for institutional food service and correctional facilities, not dried potato yams. Georgia Correctional Industries, the State of Oregon, and the Oregon Department of Corrections have all posted bids for various dried bean products within the past four months, but none of these align with the code's stated commodity. When state and local buyers do procure dried starchy vegetables or legume-based food items, they tend to bundle them with broader food-service categories that may be coded elsewhere.

The mismatch between the code name and recent procurement activity suggests that UNSPSC 50436708 either sees very limited use in state and local procurement or that issuing bodies are tagging dried-bean and dried-legume solicitations under alternative commodity codes. Without recent opportunities squarely within the dried organic potato yams scope, no geographic concentration, issuing-body pattern, or representative solicitation detail can be extracted. Vendors targeting this commodity code should verify with state procurement offices whether their product qualifies under this code or whether similar items are being procured under adjacent legume or prepared-food codes.
