HAMBURG - Jordanian's state grain buyer bought about 60,000 metric tonnes of hard milling in a Tuesday international auction. The wheat was sourced from optional origins.

They said that it was estimated to have been purchased from Cargill for $262.50 per ton, cost and freight included.

The following trading companies also participated in the tender on Tuesday: CHS $265.90; Bunge $273; Ameropa 272.47; and Cofco 267.11.

The reports reflect the opinions of traders, and it is still possible to estimate prices and volume later.
