The present investigation titled inventory management to increase productivity in an agricultural company, for this reason, the investigation was of an applied type, of pre-experimental design, made up of a sample of the data of the productivity of the hand work, found by direct observation technique. For the diagnosis, a Check list was carried out, which determined the problems that most affected, with 40% complying with some aspects for the physical taking of inventories, therefore the initial productivity was low with an average of 6.07 boxes/hh, For this reason, an inventory management design was established, which is the non-stationary deterministic model, in addition, the reorder point, safety stock, MRP, inventory accuracy and the costs of storing and ordering were applied, all this under the results of the forecast, which was based on the simple exponential smoothing model with an error of 7.09%. Through the application of inventory management, productivity was improved by 15%, it is concluded that it directly affects the increase in productivity.
