Strong wool eyes China
China looks set to play a key role in helping the New Zealand wool sector shift away from trading as a commodity supplier.
It will have technology sufficiently advanced to replicate humans, the head of the company, Xu Xiaochun, told AFP.
It aims to clone a million cows a year by 2020 to help meet the rising demand for beef in China, he says.
The scientist and entrepreneur says cattle are only the beginning: they plan to clone thoroughbred racehorses, pet dogs and police dogs for searching and sniffing.
