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 is a Commodity code with minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally identifies a specific corn variety, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve Hudson corn procurement; instead, they cover broad fresh produce and food service supply contracts for school districts and state agencies. The tagged opportunities encompass fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs, and comprehensive food service items across multiple jurisdictions, reflecting a mismatch between the code's narrow commodity scope and the broad institutional food service procurements actually being issued.

State and local school districts dominate the issuing bodies under this code's tagged opportunities, including Early County Board of Education (Georgia), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Northside Independent School District (Texas), Austin Independent School District (Texas), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), along with state procurement offices in Georgia issuing produce solicitations. Georgia school districts represent the plurality of recent activity. Representative solicitations include Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program with 300+ food items due June 8, 2026 (RFP), Northside Independent School District's fresh produce procurement for 83 elementary, 21 middle, and 13 high schools due May 7, 2026 (RFP 2026-048), Bulloch County School District's locally-grown produce solicitation for 14 schools due May 4, 2026 (RFP), and Douglas County School System's GEC Buying Cooperative fresh produce and eggs procurement covering 30 districts across two Georgia regions with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, due March 4, 2026 (RFP). Procurement activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri, with Georgia showing the most recent volume. The code's taggging appears incidental to broader institutional food service competitions; Hudson corn or non-GMO corn does not appear as a specification in any recent opportunity.
