UNSPSC 50596902: Dried Non GMO cavalier peas

The variety of Non GMO sugar peas known as Non GMO cavalier peas that have 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 50596902 Dried Non GMO cavalier peas, a Commodity code, covers dried legumes and specialty peas supplied to institutional food service programs — primarily school nutrition departments, senior meal programs, state health and human services facilities, and county food service operations. State and local governments procure dried peas as components within larger food-service contracts that span produce, proteins, condiments, and prepared items to support the National School Lunch Program, state-supported living centers, senior nutrition initiatives, and summer food service programs. The code appears within multi-line-item grocery and food-supplies solicitations rather than as standalone commodity purchases; vendors typically compete as part of broader food-service supplier networks capable of delivering across multiple product categories on firm-fixed pricing and demand-pull ordering systems.

Recent opportunities show activity across school districts, county nutrition programs, and state agencies.
