Jordan’s state grain buyer has purchased 50,000 tonnes of animal feed barley to be sourced from optional origins in an international tender for 100,000 tonnes which closed on Wednesday, European traders said.
It was bought at $180.90 a tonne c&f for shipment in the second half of March 2017, they said.
It was purchased from trader GTCS, they said. Jordan has struggled to make purchases in a series of grain tenders in recent months, with traders saying uncertainty about new quality controls and payment terms has reduced participation by major grain exporting houses.
