Tunisia's state grains agency has issued international tenders to purchase up to 109,000 tonnes of soft milling wheat and 25,000 tonnes of feed barley, European traders said on Tuesday. The origin was optional. Tender deadline is Wednesday, Feb. 22, they said. The wheat was sought in three consignments of 25,000 tonnes and two of 17,000 tonnes for shipment between March 15 and April 25, depending on origin.
The earliest shipments would be from the United States, Canada and South America, while the later shipments would be from Europe and the Black Sea region, traders said. The barley was sought in a single consignment for shipment between March 25 and April 15, also depending on origin. Benchmark Chicago wheat prices fell for a third consecutive session on Tuesday on a lack of demand for US supplies.
