Session Description: One Health is a multidisciplinary effort to improve human, animal, and environmental health by addressing disease challenges though local, national, and global collaborative efforts.  Historically, the environmental component of One Health has been under-represented.  This session will explore the environmental component of One Health through the framework of organic amendments incorporating agronomy, crop science and soil science issues, with a focus on how different disciplines conceptualize health, and apply it to their research questions.
