UNSPSC 50624206: Non GMO white vienna kohlrabi purees

The variety of Non GMO kohlrabi known as Non GMO white vienna kohlrabi. 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 50624206 Non GMO white vienna kohlrabi purees is a Commodity code that describes a highly specialized produce item, but the recent state and local solicitation record shows little procurement activity directly aligned with this specification. The code's nominal scope — non-GMO kohlrabi purees — does not match the products being actively solicited by state and local governments in the recent opportunities block. State and local agencies are instead procuring a broad range of shelf-stable and fresh food products, prepared foods, meat and seafood, dairy, condiments, beverages, grains, canned vegetables, and food service supplies to support institutional food service operations — primarily cafeteria programs at schools, prisons, state-supported living centers, and senior services facilities. The issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions, departments of corrections, school districts, county governments, and state offices of nutrition programs across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and multiple Georgia school districts appearing as repeat buyers.

The geographic spread of recent activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with a single Illinois opportunity. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods (prepared items and food service supplies) at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center due October 23, 2026; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, soups) due October 19, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026; and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for a comprehensive school nutrition program procurement due June 15, 2026. The code shows no demonstrated recent demand for non-GMO kohlrabi purees specifically; procurement activity under institutional food codes targets high-volume commodity items, prepared foods, and packaged goods with standard shelf stability and USDA compliance rather than specialized fresh produce varieties.
