Paper presents the results of simulation studies dealt with the effect of grain store and elevator localization on the costs of grain transport from purchasing centres to storage and processing places. Studies were carried out on an example of State Grain Enterprise (PZZ) in Zamość. The system of efficient planning transport operations connected with grain purchase, developed in Department of Agricultural Machines and Devices, was used in studies. Method enabled to determine optimum number and regional localization of grain stores showed the possibility of reducing transport costs by 38.3%.
