Vinayak S. Shedekar

Vinayak S. Shedekar studies how agricultural drainage and water management practices affect crop yields, water quality, and nutrient losses (especially nitrogen and phosphorus) from farm fields, mainly in the U.S. Midwest. His work combines field monitoring, modeling, and engineered treatment systems (like drainage water management and phosphorus-removal structures) to help balance crop productivity with environmental protection. This research is relevant to students interested in agricultural hydrology, soil and water conservation, and nutrient management.

Publication output has grown over the past decade, rising from a handful of papers per year in 2017-2019 to a sustained higher rate of 6-7 per year from 2022 onward.
