UNSPSC 50596855: Dried Non GMO tassle grape-hyacinth

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO tassle grape-hyacinth that has been dried for preservation. 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 50596855 Dried Non GMO tassle grape-hyacinth is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities in the dataset—grocery items for school food service, fresh produce for nutrition programs, senior meal preparation and delivery, and packaged meal boxes for summer food programs—are all mainstream food-service commodities with no connection to dried ornamental grape-hyacinth plants. The code's nominal scope (a specialty dried botanical product) does not match the work being solicited in practice, and the mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the source records or systematic miscoding of food-service procurements.

The issuing bodies in the dataset span school districts (City of Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Pascagoula-Gautier School District), county-level agencies (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida), state health and human-services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Southeast—Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi—with one solicitation from Connecticut. Because the code does not reflect the actual scope of the opportunities tagged to it, the issuing-body and geographic data provide limited decision-relevant signal for vendors pursuing dried botanical products or specialty ornamental supplies.
