UNSPSC 50524914: Non GMO diamond ray nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO diamond ray nectarines. 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 50524914 Non GMO diamond ray nectarines is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement records. The six most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve produce procurement by school districts, county parks, a healthcare coalition, and a state agency, but none of the solicitations explicitly reference nectarines, non-GMO specifications, or the "diamond ray" variety. The opportunities instead cover general fresh produce (bananas, mixed fruits and vegetables, apples, berries, leafy greens, citrus) and fresh-fruit snack programs, with no match to the code's nominal scope. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or limited real-world activity under this highly specific commodity designation.

The geographic spread of produce procurement activity in the source spans Georgia (Hancock County Schools, Bartow County Schools, Early County Schools, and the State of Georgia), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), Florida (Collier County), and national scope through healthcare and school nutrition programs. School nutrition departments and county boards of education dominate the issuing-body mix, with representative recent opportunities including Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, contract value approximately $78,000, bids due July 29, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (bids due June 26, 2026), and Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (proposals due June 22, 2026). School nutrition programs consistently emphasize domestic sourcing, HACCP compliance, traceability by farm of origin, and adherence to USDA nutrition standards. This code shows no relevant current activity worth pursuing under its stated commodity name.
