UNSPSC 50586706: Non GMO avalanche corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO argent corn. 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 50586706 Non GMO avalanche corn is a Commodity code that covers specialty corn products for food service and institutional feeding programs. State and local procurement under this code centers on fresh produce and food-service items supplied to parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and government kitchens. The issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (parks and recreation divisions), school districts, healthcare coalitions, and state procurement offices. Scope varies from single-venue concession food services to high-volume institutional meal programs spanning multiple sites and hundreds of line-item food products. Vendors must meet food-safety compliance, deliver on schedule, maintain product quality and freshness, and often comply with sourcing preferences favoring domestic products, whole-grain options, and items without added sugars or artificial additives.
