This paper will address 6 Nutrition topics that we are not getting right or are emerging. Some opportunities are hidden in plain sight. Considerations will span from weaning to market and entail calibration methodology of Ingredient NE, deriving population relevant lysine curves, growth promoting effects of soybean meal for pigs under high and low immune stress and dietary enzyme use for nutrient uplift and improved viability.
