UNSPSC 50626801: Non GMO alfalfa purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO alfalfa. 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 50626801 Non GMO alfalfa purees, a Commodity code, sees no recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities dataset contains no solicitations for alfalfa purees, whether GMO-status-specified or not. Instead, the tagged opportunities reflect generic food procurement for institutional settings—school nutrition programs, state-supported living facilities, correctional institutions, and state agencies—where vendors bid on broad food categories (fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, staples) using cooperative buying arrangements and fixed-price contracts. The code's specificity to alfalfa purees as a distinct commodity does not map to any of the recent solicitations presented.

The mismatch between the code's narrow product scope and the institutional food-service work actually being solicited suggests either a data-entry error in the state or local source system or a category classification that is rarely or never invoked in practice. Vendors pursuing state and local food contracts should monitor broader UNSPSC codes covering fresh produce, canned vegetables, and general food products—where the recent activity cluster shows state departments (Texas HHSC, Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District, Ben Hill County Schools), and other public entities issuing RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs with response dates between February and July 2026. These jurisdictions collectively represent sustained demand for food supply contracts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, Virginia, and Illinois, with typical contract values ranging from several hundred thousand to $9 million annually. The alfalfa-purees code itself presents minimal near-term opportunity.
