The lowest offer in the international tender from Tunisia's state grains agency on Wednesday to purchase 75,000 tonnes of soft milling wheat was $195.02 a tonne c&f for optional-origin supplies, European traders said. No purchase has yet been made and results are expected later on Wednesday, they said.
The lowest offer was made for 25,000 tonnes. This was followed by soft wheat offers for other shipment positions in the tender at $200.10 and $199.23 a tonne c&f, they said. Lowest offers in the tender for 50,000 tonnes of animal feed barley were $192.68 and $194.69 a tonne c&f also for different shipment positions.
The Tunisian agency does not always purchase the lowest offer if other conditions connected with the offer are seen as unattractive. The wheat was sought in three 25,000 tonne consignments for shipment between June 25 and Aug. 5, depending on the origin supplied, they said. If sourced from Tunisia's traditional supply region, the Black Sea/east Europe, shipment of the three wheat consignments was between July 5-15, July 15-25 and July 25-Aug. 5.
The barley was sought in two 25,000 tonne consignments for shipment between Sept. 15 and Nov. 5, depending on the origin supplied, they said. If sourced from the Black Sea/east Europe, shipment of the first barley consignments was between Sept. 25 and Oct. 5 and the second between Oct. 25 to November 5.
