UNSPSC 50625901: Non GMO dock sorrel purees

The variety of Non GMO sorrel known as Non GMO dock sorrel. 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 50625901 Non GMO dock sorrel purees (Commodity) sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity that actually maps to its nominal scope. The code's name suggests a narrow product line—pureed dock sorrel meeting non-GMO standards—but the most recent opportunities tagged to this code are broad-based food service and school nutrition procurements focused on general grocery, produce, and consumable items. The recent solicitation block contains no instance where dock sorrel purees, GMO or non-GMO, appear as a line item or even as an implicit commodity within the broader food categories being purchased. State and local procurement offices, particularly school districts, state health and human services agencies, and state corrections departments, are actively buying food products under related codes, but this specific commodity does not surface in recent bid activity.

The absence of dock sorrel purees in the representative opportunities—which span Illinois Veterans Homes quarterly food orders, Texas HHSC supplemental foods for state hospitals and supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections canned goods, and school districts across Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Georgia sourcing hundreds of grocery line items—suggests that either the commodity is not regularly procured by state and local bodies in sufficient volume to generate visible bid activity, or opportunities involving it are tagged to broader family or class codes rather than to this narrower commodity code. Without recent solicitations that explicitly reference or require dock sorrel purees as a line item or deliverable, pursuit of this code appears unjustified at present.
