The purposeful analysis of the existing technologies for the agricultural products transportation in railway and sea communication is carried out. Unprecedented dynamics of changes in loading and the increase of export traffic via the ports provide nigh duty on railways. Especially complicated is the organisation of freight flows to the ports at the directions with intensive mixed (freight and passenger) traffic. As a result there is an annual grow of the cars set aside from the traffic. The search of solutions was fulfilled in areas with the shortage of capacity and processing capabilities of the infrastructure of various modes of transport. The proposed solutions aimed at maximizing the use of existing transport infrastructure during the transfer of freight from railway to sea transport. The efficiency evaluation of the redistribution of freight traffic between ports of one sea basin specializing in transshipment of agricultural products is calculated. The solutions aimed at automation of the decision-making process on the optimal organization of shipment and supply of shipload lots are proposed. The results obtained in the work with the approbation on the example of organization of transportations to ports of the Azov and the Black sea basin confirm the effectiveness of the proposed solutions and the possibility of reducing the cost of transport component in the price of grain products for export
