Jordan makes no purchase in 100,000 T barley tender

HAMBURG: Jordan's state grain buyer made no purchase in an international tender for 100,000 tonnes of feed barley which closed on Thursday, European traders said.

A new tender is expected to be issued in coming days, they said.

Jordan has struggled to make purchases in a series of wheat and barley tenders in recent months, with traders saying uncertainty about new quality controls and payment terms had reduced tender participation by major grain exporting houses.

The country also made no purchase in a tender for 100,000 tonnes of wheat on Tuesday and a new tender for wheat is also expected.
