UNSPSC 50586755: Non GMO seneca starshine corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO seneca starshine 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 50586755 Non GMO Seneca Starshine corn is a Commodity code representing a specific agricultural product line typically purchased by state and local food-service operations. Recent solicitations show this code appearing alongside broader food-procurement activity, though the opportunities in the record reveal a mismatch between the code's nominal scope—a single corn variety—and the actual purchasing pattern. State and local governments solicit this code as part of comprehensive food-service contracts that encompass produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and other food items for institutional feeding programs including school meals, park concessions, and health-care facility operations. Issuing bodies include county governments, school districts, state purchasing offices, and health-care coalitions. The work typically requires vendors to meet USDA compliance, food-safety certification, domestic-sourcing preferences, and delivery schedules tied to institutional meal calendars.

Recent activity spans multiple states and issuing-body types. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an IFB for school lunch program food items due June 8, 2026, requiring line-by-line bids across 300+ food products including vegetables and grains; the State of Georgia posted a broader food-supplies bid due June 22, 2026. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an ITN for food-service concessions at North Collier Regional Park due March 6, 2025, with a 10-point local-vendor preference and three-year contract term. Marion Health Care Coalition (MHCC) solicited produce proposals due August 21, 2026. The code shows limited direct activity tied specifically to Non GMO Seneca Starshine corn; most recent procurement records tag broader food categories and do not isolate single commodity varieties, suggesting that this code either sees limited dedicated solicitation or is frequently grouped under parent family codes for produce or grains when institutions issue comprehensive food bids.
