UNSPSC 50584306: Non GMO wild leek ramp

The variety of Non GMO leeks known as Non GMO wild leek ramp. 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 50584306 Non GMO wild leek ramp is a Commodity code that describes a specific agricultural product — wild leeks (ramps) grown without genetic modification — but recent state and local solicitations show no procurement activity under this code. The most recent opportunities in the dataset are school nutrition and institutional food-service contracts for fresh produce broadly, including apples, bananas, peppers, carrots, and other vegetables and fruits, along with eggs and prepared items; none specifically name ramps or wild leeks as a line item or procurement need.

The code appears inactive in the state and local procurement space as of mid-2026. While school districts, county boards of education, and independent school districts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida are actively soliciting fresh produce contracts — with recent RFPs and IFBs from Northside ISD (San Antonio), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa), Bulloch County Schools (Statesboro, Georgia), Muscogee County Schools (Columbus, Georgia), and Douglas County Schools (Douglasville, Georgia) — none of the representative recent opportunities reference wild leeks, ramps, or specialty foraged vegetables. The solicitations focus on commodity produce staples (apples, bananas, lettuce, carrots, peppers, broccoli, tomatoes, citrus, potatoes, eggs) and processed or value-added items. If ramps are procured by any state or local body, they are either sourced through broader agricultural or specialty-food contracts tagged at a higher UNSPSC tier, or purchased in such small volumes relative to institutional food service that they do not appear in publicly posted RFPs and IFBs. Business development focus on this code would benefit from direct outreach to school nutrition directors and institutional food-service procurement teams in regions where ramp cultivation is geographically viable.
