       HAMBURG, Aug 14 (Reuters) - The lowest offer in an
international tender from Bangladesh's state grains buyer to
purchase and import 50,000 metric tons of wheat which closed on
Sunday was assessed at $304.83 a metric ton liner out, European
traders said.
    The offer was believed to have been submitted by trading
house Agrocorp. 
    Offers are still being considered and no purchase has yet
been made, traders said. Bangladesh generally does not make
immediate decisions about wheat purchases which can take some
time to be confirmed.
    Traders said other offers submitted in the tender per metric
ton liner out were: Aston at $322.22, Grain Flower $313.00 and
Cereal Crops at 309.00.
    Liner out costs include ship unloading costs for the wheat
seller. 
    Shipment is sought 40 days after the date of contract
signing. The wheat can be sourced from any worldwide origins
except Israel.
    A separate tender from Bangladesh for 50,000 metric tons of
wheat closed on Aug. 1.
