OREANDA-NEWS. February 06, 2015. Iraq issued a new international tender to buy at least 50,000 tonnes of wheat to be sourced from the United States, Canada, Australia or Russia, the trade ministry said on Thursday.

The tender closes on Feb. 15 and offers must remain valid until Feb. 19, a statement on the ministry's website said.

Volumes in Iraq's wheat tenders are nominal and the country frequently buys more than it tenders for.
