UNSPSC 50581825: Non GMO green romano beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO green romano 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 50581825 Non GMO green romano beans, a Commodity code, represents fresh produce sourcing for state and local food service operations. State and local governments buy romano beans and similar fresh vegetables through this code primarily to support school lunch programs, healthcare facility dining, and public recreational facility concessions. The solicitations show a pattern of district and county food-service buyers seeking produce as part of broader food-supply contracts that bundle fresh fruits and vegetables with other food items, non-food supplies, and kitchen products. School districts and county parks departments dominate the issuing-body mix, with healthcare coalitions and state government procurement offices also active in the space.
