UNSPSC 50585901: Non GMO dock sorrel

The variety of Non GMO sorrel known as Non GMO dock sorrel. 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 50585901 Non GMO dock sorrel, a Commodity code, represents a narrow and specialized produce line item with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. State and local school districts and food service operations occasionally reference dock sorrel or similar specialty greens in comprehensive produce solicitations, but this specific commodity does not appear as a standalone line item or primary focus in the recent opportunities dataset. The code appears to be a fine-grained taxonomy entry for a niche agricultural product that most state and local buyers source as part of broader fresh-produce or salad-mix contracts rather than through dedicated single-item procurements.

School districts across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri dominate recent activity in the broader fresh-produce space (codes at higher taxonomic tiers), with produce solicitations typically bundled across 60–300 line items encompassing apples, bananas, carrots, broccoli, leafy greens, and prepared produce rather than individual specialty items like dock sorrel. Representative recent opportunities include the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (RFQ, due June 8, 2026) covering 300+ food items, the Northside Independent School District's fresh-produce RFP for child nutrition (due May 7, 2026), and the Glynn County Board of Education's fresh-produce IFB (due April 14, 2026). Producers interested in this Commodity code should monitor school-district and state-agency produce contracts at the Family or Class tier, where specialty greens and locally sourced produce are increasingly specified alongside conventional staples, rather than pursue dock sorrel as an isolated commodity.
