Adds detail from paragraph three
HAMBURG, Oct 4 (Reuters) – Jordan’s state grains buyer has issued a new international tender to purchase 120,000 tonnes of animal feed barley, European traders said on Monday.
The deadline for submission of price offers in the tender is Oct. 7.
A new tender had been anticipated after Jordan made no purchase in its previous tender for 120,000 tonnes of barley on Sept. 30 in which three trading houses participated.
Jordan has cancelled several barley tenders in recent weeks amid low participation from trading houses.
Shipment in the new tender is sought in a series of possible combinations in 60,000 tonne consignments, traders said.
Possible shipment combinations are Dec. 16-31, 2021, and in 2022 between Jan. 1-15, Jan. 16-31 and Feb. 1-14.
Jordan has also issued a separate tender for 120,000 tonnes of milling wheat closing on Oct. 6. GRA/TEND
