About this opportunity
The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service has issued a revised Commodity Requirements Document for sunflower seed butter effective April 14, 2026. This Special Notice establishes standardized specifications for sunflower seed butter products intended for domestic food distribution programs. The notice applies to two material codes: Material Code 100935 and Material Code 110073, both specifying sunflower seed butter in smooth format packaged as 6/5-pound cases. The requirements are classified under NAICS 311224 (Soybean and Other Oilseed Processing) and PSC 8925 (Sugar, Confectionery, and Nuts). This document serves as the baseline specification for suppliers seeking to provide sunflower seed butter commodities to the federal government for domestic food assistance initiatives.
The primary objective of this Commodity Requirements Document is to establish consistent quality and safety standards for sunflower seed butter supplied to federal food distribution programs. Each delivery requires 1,232 cases per truck with a net weight of 36,960 pounds per truckload. Products must comply with Commercial Item Description A-A-20371 and be manufactured in facilities with zero tolerance for peanut and tree nut residue, meeting critical allergen control standards. Suppliers must source sunflower seeds of human food quality confectionery kernels meeting U.S. Grade No. 2 or better, with aflatoxin levels not exceeding 15 parts per billion and 100 percent U.S. origin certification. The finished product must satisfy strict microbiological standards including Salmonella negative and E. Coli testing requirements. Contractors interested in supplying these commodities should note that the due date for this notice coincides with the posting date of April 14, 2026, indicating this is an informational specification update rather than a competitive solicitation.
