UNSPSC 50436801: Dried organic alfalfa

The type of organic vegetable known as organic alfalfa that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436801 Dried organic alfalfa is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity specifically matching its scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show no purchases of dried organic alfalfa; instead, they consist of broad food-service solicitations for school nutrition programs, corrections facility meal service, and child care meal programs that span proteins, produce, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous staple items. The Oregon Department of Corrections has solicited dried beans (pinto and red), which are commodity-level dried legumes but not alfalfa. School districts including Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Muscogee County, and Savannah-Chatham County are procuring fresh produce, grocery items, and fresh protein for child nutrition services. City and state nutrition programs, including the City of Edinburg's CACFP meal service and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria, solicited diverse food categories with no emphasis on dried alfalfa. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state corrections and social-service agencies.

Geographic concentration appears limited to Texas (Edinburg CACFP, TDCJ cafeteria procurement), Georgia (multiple school districts, state food-supply contracts), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Virginia (Fairfax County), and Oregon (ODOC dried-bean bids), with Illinois represented by a single weekly food-order solicitation. No recent state or local opportunities show active procurement of dried organic alfalfa as a line item or primary scope element. This code may see limited uptake in state and local government purchasing, or alfalfa is procured under feed or agricultural commodity codes rather than under food-service classifications. Firms focused on dried-alfalfa supply should monitor corrections, institutional nutrition, and animal-feed procurement separately and confirm UNSPSC code alignment before responding.
