Saudi Arabia tenders to buy 720,000 tonnes wheat.

Saudi Arabia’s main state wheat buying agency, Saudi Grains Organization, has issued an international tender to purchase 720,000 tonnes of hard wheat. At least part of the purchase could be sourced in Germany and ship loadings have shown large shipments of German wheat moving to Saudi Arabia which seem to indicate parts of previous tenders were supplied with German wheat. But Poland has also emerged as a major exporter recently and so it is not easy to assess the likely origins which will be selected.
