European traders reported on Tuesday that the Tunisian ONF, a state agency, has launched an international tender for the purchase of approximately 50,000 metric tonnes animal feed corn.

Grain can come from a variety of origins. They said that the deadline for submitting price offers was Wednesday, July 9.

Two consignments totaling 25,000 tons are required, with one shipment to be shipped between July 25th and August 25th and the second between September 25th and October 25th.

The delivery period varies depending on the origin chosen for supply. Origins accepted include Europe, the Black Sea Region, the United States of America, Canada, Brazil, and Argentina.
