UNSPSC 50524106: Non GMO lisbon lemons

The variety of non GMO lemons known as non GMO lisbon 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 50524106 Non GMO Lisbon lemons (Commodity) shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its scope. The single represented opportunity in the dataset—Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas—targets a different commodity entirely and does not reflect buying under this code. A second MMSD solicitation (RFB 4163) covers fresh fruit and vegetable snacks more broadly but specifies no citrus or lemon procurement. The remaining opportunities across the dataset (Hancock County Schools, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn County, McAllen ISD, Austin ISD, Douglas County School System, and the State of Georgia) address comprehensive fresh produce, fresh fruit and vegetable programs, or commodity bundles that do not isolate lemon procurement as a line item. While school nutrition programs and institutional food service buyers do purchase fresh citrus, this code appears dormant in recent state and local solicitations at the specificity level of non-GMO Lisbon lemons.

Geographic activity, to the extent it is present, clusters in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn County, Douglas County) with secondary solicitations in Wisconsin (Madison), Texas (McAllen, Austin), and a state-level Georgia food products RFP. The weight of recent institutional fresh-produce procurement is concentrated among Georgia school districts, but none singles out Lisbon lemons as a coded commodity line. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for practical pursuit purposes and monitor broader citrus or fresh-fruit-and-vegetable family codes for institutional nutrition opportunities instead.
