UNSPSC 50586728: Non GMO hudson corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO hudson 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 50586728 Non GMO Hudson corn, a Commodity code, spans fresh produce sourcing by state and local public bodies — primarily school districts, county parks departments, and regional healthcare entities procuring fresh fruits, vegetables, and specialty agricultural products for food service operations, cafeterias, and concession facilities. State and local buyers under this code emphasize domestic sourcing, food safety compliance, seasonal availability management, and competitive pricing. Issuing bodies include county governments (parks and recreation divisions), independent school districts (National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program), and healthcare coalitions. The sourcing reflects operational demand across meal programs, park concessions, and institutional food service rather than commodity trading; contracts typically run annual or multi-year terms with renewal options and often carry local-vendor or domestic-sourcing preferences.
