The soft wheat was said to have been bought at $298.49 a tonne on a cost and freight (c&f) basis for four consignments and $302.19 a tonne c&f for one consignment, all from trading house Casillo.
The durum was bought in two consignments, all at an estimated $374.68 a tonne c&f, also from Casillo.
Prices were regarded as too high. Feed wheat offers were believed to be over $300 a tonne c&f after markets rose in past days after Russia announced plans for higher than expected wheat export taxes.
