The article presents road transport planning in an agricultural enterprise using a GPS system for recording the work of transport means and assessing the efficiency of internal and external transport. The research was carried out in an agricultural enterprise during winter wheat harvest, winter rape and corn for grain from a total area of 460 ha. The fields were located from the headquarters within a radius of 10.75 km. A total of 4479.8 tons were transported. On the basis of the results obtained, the duration of the course with and without cargo was calculated, the turnover time, the size of the freight stream and the operational and technical speed.
