UNSPSC 50603206: Frozen Non GMO avalanche corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO avalanche corn that has been frozen 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 50603206 Frozen Non GMO avalanche corn, a Commodity code, covers frozen specialty corn products that state and local governments source for institutional food service and assistance programs. Recent solicitations show procurement focused on shelf-stable and frozen provisions for county senior services, school lunch and breakfast programs, and state-level food supply operations. Gwinnett County procures frozen corn and other canned proteins and vegetables for senior meal services; Early County Board of Education sources frozen and fresh produce including specialty corn varieties to meet USDA whole-grain and nutritional standards for school breakfast and lunch programs; and the State of Georgia maintains standing demand for frozen food products across institutional locations. Issuing bodies include county purchasing divisions managing senior services and social assistance, independent school districts operating child nutrition programs, and state departments coordinating multi-site food procurement. School districts appear as repeat buyers, driven by statutory National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program obligations.
