The Ethiopian government recently retendered for a third time to buy 400,000 tons of imported milling wheat for the country’s bread subsidy program.

MY17/18 grain production was better than expected due to favorable weather conditions and relatively minor losses from Fall Army Worm.

In early February, Ethiopia retendered for 400,000 metric tons of milling wheat after canceling an earlier-made contract because the supplier failed to provide the $10 million performance guarantee.

In late 2017, Ethiopia contracted to buy 800,000 metric tons of imported wheat, valued at $225 million.
