Abstract: A method of material distribution for distributing free-flowing material is provided which consists of transporting the material in bulk from one location to another, siting a mobile bagging apparatus at the second location, unloading the transported material into the bagging apparatus, and bagging the material for use. In a preferred arrangement the mobile bagging apparatus has a receiving hopper for material, a weighing and bagging machine for metering the material into bags in predetermined quantities by weight, and a stitching machine for closing the bags. The material is suitably transported in bulk by transport ship.
