I already posted news about my research papers being accepted to present at the World Congress of Environmental and Resource Economists 2026 (WCERE 2026) and 2026 International Energy Workshop (IEW 2026). Besides, my research has been accepted in a few other meetings, which I have included in a single announcement excluding previously announced meetings.

My paper on agrivoltaics adoption—examining how U.S. solar developers perceive and drive dual land-use systems—has been accepted to the 2026 International Energy Workshop (IEW). Selected through a highly competitive review process, this work contributes to ongoing conversations on clean energy transitions, land-use efficiency, and sustainable innovation.
My research paper, Scaling Sustainable Aviation Fuel: Cost-Effective Pathways and Regional Economic Impacts, has been accepted for presentation at the World Congress of Environmental and Resource Economists 2026 in Portugal. The study examines how different sustainable aviation fuel production pathways—HEFA, Fischer–Tropsch, and Alcohol-to-Jet—affect production costs and regional economic outcomes in the southern United States, highlighting how technology choices can shape both decarbonization strategies and regional development.
Title: Willingness to Pay for Deer Hunting Site Attributes using Best-Worst Choice Authors: Bijesh Mishra1, Rodney Will2, Omkar Joshi3 1. Ph.D. Candidate, Department of Natural Resource Ecology and Management, Oklahoma State University 2. Professor, Department of Natural Resource Ecology and Management, Oklahoma State University 3. Assistant Professor, Department of Natural Resource Ecology and Management, Oklahoma State University Abstract:The forest-prairie ecotone of the south-central USA can provide excellent habitat for wildlife such as deer, and turkey but is slowly transitioning to closed-canopy forest largely due to the absence of active management such as prescribed fire. Although active management can create or…
Title: Peer Pressure, Self-Efficacy, Outcome Expectancy, and Moral Values Predict Intentions for Active Management of Ecosystems in Oklahoma Authors: Bijesh Mishra, Rodney Will, Omkar Joshi Abstract The forest-grassland ecotone of the south-central USA is transiting towards close canopy forest due to the exclusion of fire. Active management can restore the ecosystem and its ecosystem services. Active management, however, comes with the cost of management and acceptance of management tools. Deer hunting is a vital source of revenue generation to offset the landowner’s management cost in the region. This paper addresses the question of how landowners’ beliefs, attitudes, and norms about…
