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 50594807 Dried Non GMO hedge hog mushrooms is a Commodity code. State and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal relevance to recent solicitations. The recent opportunities available do not include procurement of dried non-GMO hedge hog mushrooms or specialty mushroom products; instead, they reflect broader food service contracts spanning comprehensive grocery assortments, fresh produce, meal preparation, and general food distribution for school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food service.

School districts and county boards of education dominate the issuing bodies across the available opportunities, with three Georgia school systems (Douglas County, Bulloch County, and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools), two Connecticut districts (Meriden Public Schools and Bridgeport Board of Education), and others soliciting food contracts. The City of Dallas, Hillsborough County Commission in Florida, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and the State of Georgia also appear as issuers.
