UNSPSC 50525804: Non GMO autumn beaut plums

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO autumn beaut plums. 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 50525804 Non GMO autumn beaut plums (Commodity) shows minimal recent procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code represents a single produce item — a specific plum variety with non-GMO designation — yet the recent opportunities in the <most-recent-state-local-contract-opportunities> block solicited comprehensive fresh produce portfolios (bananas, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, mixed produce spanning apples through specialty items) or beverages, with no posting mentioning autumn beaut plums or plums in any form. School districts and the State of Georgia dominate the issuing bodies, using RFB, RFP, and IFB notice types to award annual or multi-month supply contracts valued from $78,000 to $4.4 million, with responses typically due within 30 to 60 days of posting.

The geographic concentration is entirely in Georgia and Texas, with recent opportunities posted by Madison Metropolitan School District and Hancock County Board of Education (Wisconsin and Georgia, respectively), Bartow County, Bulloch County, Early County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Glynn County school districts (all Georgia), the State of Georgia, Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Austin Independent School District and McAllen Independent School District (Texas), and Douglas County School System (Georgia). The code appears to be a taxonomic mismatch with actual state and local procurement: the commodity name specifies autumn beaut plums, but the recent solicitations request broad seasonal produce assortments reflecting school nutrition program demand, with no vendor emphasis on plum varieties as a differentiated product line. No opportunities in the block reference autumn beaut plums, plums as a specialty item, or non-GMO produce certifications as a primary sourcing criterion, suggesting the code sees little or no recent activity in its stated commodity classification. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for pursuit purposes pending evidence of actual autumn beaut plum solicitations at the state or local level.
