Abstract
Postnikov gave a combinatorial description of the cells in a totally nonnegative Grassmannian. These cells correspond to a special class of matroids called positroids. We prove his conjecture that a positroid is exactly an intersection of cyclically shifted Schubert matroids. This leads to a combinatorial description of positroids that is easily computable.
