UNSPSC 50581716: Non GMO brooks 1978 avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO brooks 1978 avocados. 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 50581716 Non GMO brooks 1978 avocados is a Commodity code that in practice captures fresh produce procurement across a broad spectrum of state and local buying — parks concession operations, healthcare facility food service, school nutrition programs, and state institutional food supply. The recent opportunities show that state and local bodies are buying fresh fruits and vegetables as operational inputs to food-service operations rather than procuring a single specialty product line; the code's nominal name does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited. Issuing bodies include county parks departments, school boards, state procurement offices, and healthcare coalitions. School districts represent a significant segment, driven by National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program requirements and domestic-sourcing preferences embedded in those programs.
