UNSPSC 50583308: Non GMO crystal lemon cucumbers

The variety of Non GMO cucumbers known as Non GMO crystal lemon cucumbers. 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 50583308 Non GMO crystal lemon cucumbers is a Commodity code covering fresh produce items supplied to state and local institutions. Recent solicitations show state and local governments purchasing fresh fruits and vegetables — including cucumbers and other produce — primarily through food-service contracts for schools, parks, healthcare facilities, and institutional dining operations. The work centers on vendor provision of fresh produce meeting food-safety compliance, quality standards, seasonal availability, and delivery requirements to support meal programs and concession operations. Issuing bodies include county school boards, county parks and recreation divisions, healthcare coalitions, and state procurement offices. The scope typically requires vendors to meet USDA standards where applicable (particularly in school nutrition programs), maintain temperature and freshness guarantees, provide diverse product selections, and deliver on established schedules.
