According to 现代汉语词典: In the past 漕运 referred to the government shipping grain by water to meet the needs of the capital or the army.

Editor:
①中国古代对水路运输的称呼。
②中国历代对地方政-府将所征粮食运往京师或其他指定地点的水路运输(有时包括部分陆路运输)的称呼。始于秦始皇。辛亥革命后,漕运的粮食都改征货币,漕运废除。
many dicts (Z,K,M) say only "to the capital", but the only reason for preferring the capital is that it was government grain.
Diff:
# 漕運 漕运 [cao2 yun4] /to transport by water/to ship grain as tax/
+ 漕運 漕运 [cao2 yun4] /(old) to transport by water/to ship grain as tax/
