UNSPSC 50586742: Non GMO nk-199 corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO nk-199 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 50586742 Non GMO nk-199 corn is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not show relevant activity. The code's narrow specification — a single corn hybrid product — does not align with the actual procurement scope appearing under this code tag in recent opportunities. The Collier County food-services concession contract (ITN 258360, posted October 8, 2026, due March 6, 2025) seeks a general food vendor to operate concessions at regional parks; the Marion Health Care Coalition produce proposal (SP0040000017708, posted August 7, 2026, due August 21, 2026) solicits fresh fruits and vegetables broadly; the State of Georgia food-supplies bid (PE55645NONST2026000000009, posted May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026) requests food, supplies, and kitchen products without commodity specificity; and the Early County Board of Education food bid (PE55045NONST2027000000006, posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026) covers 300+ line items across meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains, and condiments for the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs. None of these opportunities target non-GMO corn seed or grain as a primary deliverable.

The recent opportunities span county parks and recreation departments, health-care coalitions, state procurement offices, and school districts across Georgia and Florida, but the code assignment appears to be a tagging misalignment rather than active market demand for the specified commodity. Firms pursuing agricultural-input or commodity-grain procurement under this code should verify the actual scope with issuing bodies, as the recent record shows no focused demand for non-GMO nk-199 corn specifically among state and local buyers.
