Jordan's national grain buyer issued an international bid to purchase 120,000 metric tonnes of milling wheat that can be sourced in a variety of origins. European traders confirmed this on Wednesday.

The deadline to submit price proposals in the tender is 23 July.

The traders had expected a new announcement after Jordan bought 60,000 tons in its previous tender of 120,000 tons on February 2.

The new tender seeks to ship in various combinations of 60,000-ton consignments.

The possible shipment combinations for September 1-15, September 16-30, and October 1-15 are listed below.

Jordan also announced a separate tender for the purchase of 120,000 tons animal feed barley. Price offers are due later today. (Reporting and editing by Jason Neely, Michael Hogan)
