HAMBURG, March 15 (Reuters) – Iraq’s state grains board has bought 100,000 tonnes wheat to be sourced from Canada, European traders said on Tuesday.

The purchase was made after Iraq last week informed traders it had cancelled a tender for at least 50,000 tonnes of wheat.

The Canadian wheat now purchased was bought at $236.91 a tonne c&f free out, they said.
