BRAZIL (CONAB) TENDER - Brazil

JUNE 10, 2024 UPDATE - BRAZIL TENDER RESULTS - BOUGHT 263,300 MT

The National Supply Company (Conab) purchased 263.3 thousand tons of imported rice at an auction held this Thursday morning.  

The auction was initially blocked by the Federal Court in Porto Alegre. The president of the Federal Regional Court of the 4th Region (TRF-4), Fernando Quadros da Silva, however, accepted the request from the Attorney General's Office (AGU) and authorized the auction to take place.


JUNE 6, 2024 UPDATE - COURT SUSPENDS CONAB RICE TENDER

SOURCE: terrabrasilnoticias.com

*URGENT: Court immediately suspends brazil government tender for the purchase of imported rice*

The substitute judge of the Federal Court of the 4th Region, Bruno Risch Fagundes de Oliveira, granted an injunction on Wednesday night (5), suspending the auction of the National Supply Company (Conab) for the purchase of 300 thousand tons of imported rice. The auction was scheduled for this Thursday, having been organized by the government in response to the risks to rice plantations and runoff caused by floods in Rio Grande do Sul, the largest national producer of the food. The information is from Veja.

Oliveira recognizes that the state is the largest rice producer in the country and that the damage caused by the rains “should compromise local rice production” but emphasizes that the prediction on the actual damage to production or flow is not yet “conclusive” of food to other states.
