UNSPSC 50581811: Non GMO bolita beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO bolita 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 50581811 Non GMO bolita beans (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The source records sixteen fresh produce solicitations from school districts, county school systems, and state agencies across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida posted between February and May 2026—spanning produce categories including apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, leafy greens, berries, and eggs—but none reference bolita beans or dried legume line items. Early County Schools (Georgia) solicited approximately 300 food items for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program with bids due June 8, 2026; Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) sought specialty fresh fruits and vegetables for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program with proposals due March 11, 2026; and Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued an RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs to serve 30 districts across two geographic areas with sealed proposals due March 4, 2026. None of these solicitations included dried beans, bolita varieties, or commodity items fitting the code's nominal scope.

The absence of activity under this code reflects the composition of recent state and local food-service procurement, which concentrates on fresh produce, eggs, dairy, and prepared items for school nutrition programs rather than bulk dry goods like beans. Business development professionals should monitor this code for changes in school-district sourcing patterns toward dried-goods contracting, but current activity does not support pursuit under the code as named.
