UNSPSC 50524101: Non GMO baboon lemons

The variety of non GMO lemons known as non GMO baboon lemons. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50524101 Non GMO baboon lemons, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities tagged under it. The opportunities posted since May 2026 involve fresh produce procurement across multiple categories — petite bananas, mixed fresh fruits and vegetables, apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, citrus, and processed food supplies — but none specifically reference non-GMO baboon lemons or any baboon varietal. School districts and county park systems are the primary issuing bodies, soliciting produce for school nutrition programs (breakfast and lunch), Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program eligibility, and regional park concession operations. Solicitations require compliance with HACCP plans, food safety certifications, domestic sourcing preferences (Buy American provisions in some cases), delivery temperature controls, traceability documentation by farm of origin, and $500,000 to $1 million liability insurance. Contract terms typically run one school or fiscal year with renewal options. Evaluation criteria weigh cost heavily (typically 40%), followed by qualifications, geographic preference or local sourcing, diverse-owned business status, and references.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin school districts and county systems. The Madison Metropolitan School District posted two separate RFBs in July 2026 — one for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 annual value, due July 29, 2026) and one for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks under the USDA Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program (5,900 servings weekly, 400-mile Wisconsin sourcing requirement, due July 29, 2026). Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) bid fresh produce with over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year (due June 26, 2026). Bartow County School System (Georgia) sought local fresh fruits and vegetables within 400 miles (RFP due June 22, 2026). Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025). Marion Health Care Coalition solicited produce proposals for the 2026–2027 period (due August 21, 2026). The code shows no recent opportunities for non-GMO baboon lemons specifically and appears misaligned with the actual procurement activity it is tagged to capture.
