UNSPSC 50581802: Non GMO appaloosa beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO appaloosa beans. 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 50581802 Non GMO appaloosa beans, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity specifically targeting appaloosa beans or the category of specialty legume commodities. The recent opportunities in the dataset reflect broad institutional food service procurement across school districts, state agencies, and educational systems, but none name appaloosa beans as a line item or procurement focus.

State and local school nutrition programs, state purchasing offices, and county school districts dominate the food service procurement landscape represented in the most recent opportunities. From February through June 2026, solicitations from the State of Georgia, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Rockwood School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Austin Independent School District (Texas), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all issued RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs for fresh produce, child nutrition groceries, and related food service items. Hillsborough County issued an RFP for specialty fruits and vegetables under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program with an estimated budget of $600,000. Bulloch County sought locally-grown produce within 200 miles for its Farm to School program; Early County Schools emphasized low-sodium formulations and products without added sugars or artificial additives; and Douglas County coordinated a cooperative buying solicitation across 30 school districts in Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas; secondary activity appears in Missouri and Florida. No recent opportunities identified appaloosa beans as a commodity line item within school nutrition, state agency food purchasing, or institutional procurement under this code.
