why do I need to do "zpool import <poolname>" every time I boot?

FreeBSD 13.4 amd64
fresh install.
I've got another installation running with a zfs raid0 and it works.
However, on this system, EVERY TIME I cold boot, the zfs system is
"missing",
and I have to do "zpool import poolname".

WHY?

Thanks,
