Abstract
IMAG-DLO is working on scheduling the flow of rolling containers in pot-plant nurseries.
In the initial phase of the project, the internal transport systems of eleven pot-plant nurseries with rolling containers have been described in detail.

In the initial phase of the project, the internal transport systems of eleven pot-plant nurseries with rolling containers have been described in detail.
The objectives were
- to get an impression of the real dimensions of internal transport systems in pot-plant nurseries with rolling containers;
- to discover which methods the managers use for strategic, tactical, and operational planning of internal transport; and
- to make an inventory of the main problems concerning internal transport.
This paper presents the detailed results of this survey.
