Livestock microbiota manipulation through nutrition
Dr. Dana Stanley, Associate Professor, Central Queensland University, North Rockhampton, Australia
 
In the last decade, we learned considerable about intestinal; however, despite all the new knowledge, we are still not able to control its colonization and maturation. This presentation will focus on ways to manipulate the development of intestinal microbiota of agricultural animals for better pathogen control and improved performance, control of antimicrobial resistance and alternatives to antibiotics.

A European perspective of applied swine nutrition
Dr. Jaume Coma, Val Companys, Lleida, Spain
 
The presentation will cover the European view of different topics as 1) Different raw materials: changes and variability of composition at the feed mill, 2) raising piglets without antimicrobials/zinc oxide, 3) considerations on feeding non-castrated pigs in the growing-finishing stage and 4) effects of applied swine nutrition on practical sustainability of pork production.

What we have learned and future thoughts on feeding pigs during times of stress and disease
Dr. Nick Gabler, Professor and Associate Chair, Iowa State University, Ames, IA
 
Common stresses (eg. weaning, heat stress, oxidative stress, inflammation, pathogens) impair performance. Understanding their impact on digestibility, metabolism, protein accretion and feed efficiency provides insight into strategies to improve poor-health pig production. This talk will discuss known, new and future insights into how nutrition can be used to mitigate weaning and disease stress in wean to finish pigs.

Towards increased accuracy of estimating net energy of diets and feed ingredients for ad libitum fed group housed pigs using the indirect calorimetry approach
Dr. Hans Stein, Professor, University of Illinois, Champaign, IL
 
Since the last major updates to net energy systems for pigs were implemented more than 25 years ago, new analytical tools, new knowledge about nutrient digestibility and absorption, new feed technologies, and new feed additives have been developed. It is, therefore, possible that
this new knowledge can be incorporated into an improved net energy system for pigs.

Where are we headed with branch chained amino acids and swine nutrition in general
Dr. Mike Tokach, Distinguished Professor, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS
 
Increased corn protein in U.S. swine diets creates a need to understand the impact of high leucine levels on requirements of other amino acids. Mike will focus on the practical implications of branch chain amino acid nutrition. Mike has also been charged with addressing the future of swine nutrition and training of the next generation of nutritionists.
