RT Journal Article T1 Centralized inventory in a farming community A1 Fiestras Janeiro, Maria Gloria A1 García Jurado, Ignacio A1 Meca Martínez, Ana A1 Mosquera Rodríguez, Manuel Alfredo K1 1207.08 Inventarios AB A centralized inventory problem is a situation in which several agents face individual inventory problems and make an agreement to coordinate their orders with the objective of reducing costs. In this paper we identify a centralized inventory problem arising in a farming community in northwestern Spain, model the problem using two alternative approaches, find the optimal inventory policies for both models, and propose allocation rules for sharing the optimal costs in this context.
