UNSPSC 50525031: Non GMO osceola oranges

The variety of non GMO oranges known as non GMO osceola oranges. 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 50525031 Non GMO Osceola oranges (Commodity) shows no recent relevant state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single orange variety, but the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for Osceola oranges or citrus procurement tagged to this code. The single opportunity mentioning citrus (Bulloch County School District's local-produce RFP posting April 3, 2026) names only generic citrus varieties—Kisses, Kishus, Satsumas, and Tangerines—without reference to Osceola oranges.

State and local food service procurement in this UNSPSC's peer category (fresh produce for school nutrition) centers on apples, bananas, mixed produce bundles, and fresh-cut options rather than single varietal citrus. The mismatch between the code's specificity and actual buying patterns suggests this code may be overspecified or abandoned in current state and local procurement practice. No issuing body, geographic region, dollar value, or response date applies to UNSPSC 50525031 itself based on the opportunities posted.
