This document discusses the transportation problem in linear programming. It begins with an introduction and definition of the transportation problem. It then discusses how to formulate a transportation problem model and provides an example formulation. It explains that there are two steps to solve a transportation problem: 1) find an initial basic feasible solution and 2) solve for the optimal solution. It proceeds to describe several methods for finding an initial basic feasible solution, including the North West Corner Rule, Least Cost Method, and Vogel's Approximation Method. Examples are provided to illustrate each method.
