HAMBURG- Jordan's state grain buyer, the Trade Ministry, on Tuesday issued a new tender to buy 120,000 tonnes of milling wheat which can be sourced from optional origins, European traders said.

A new tender had been indicated when Jordan made no purchase in its previous tender for 120,000 tonnes of wheat last week. GRA/TEND

Possible combinations are Nov. 1-15, Nov. 16-30, Dec. 1-15 and Dec. 16-31.
