“We plan to take two to three years to build up a herd comprised of over 1,000 super cows, as a solid foundation to tackle China’s reliance on overseas dairy cows and the issue of the risk of being ‘choked.'”

Chinese scientists at the Northwest A&F University were able to birth three cloned cows with altered traits that allow the cows to produce milk than the typical and unaltered cow can.

According to Chinese state-funded media the Global Times, the cows were raised from ‘cloned targets’ in different farms in China. These cows can purportedly produce 18 tons of milk annually and over 100 tons of milk in the cow’s lifetime individually.

The first calf looked identical to the parent it was cloned from, including the hide pattern. It weighed 56.7 kilograms and was 76 centimeters tall and 113 centimeters long at birth, the University said in a press release.

The first batch of cloned cows were apart of 120 cloned embryos, of which 42% were impregnated and nearly 17.5% were still fertile by the 200th day.

Project lead Jin Yaping told the Global Times that this scientific breakthrough will ultimately benefit the economy by providing more sustainable and dependable sources of milk. The University says that 70% of the country’s dairy cows are imported from overseas. China has a reported 6.6 million Holstein Friesian cattle that are touted as being highly productive. Some countries have banned the exportation of these breeds of cattle to China.

‘However, only about five in 10,000 such cattle in China are highly productive, long-lived and stress-resistant at the same time in their living environment in China, factoring in such issues as the climate,’ Global Times added. Thus, scientists had a more difficult time getting ahold of the cow’s genes so that they could be used in hybridization projects to generate even more productive cows.

Yaping said via the press release that some tissues were swiped from the cattle’s ears and were then used to “reincarnate” the cows, the lead scientist said.

Using cloning technology alone won’t have any economic meaning, and the combination of tapping reproductive technology and using low-productive cows as surrogates allowed us to reproduce 20 more offspring compared with just using cloning for a given time period.

We plan to take two to three years to build up a herd comprised of over 1,000 super cows, as a solid foundation to tackle China’s reliance on overseas dairy cows and the issue of the risk of being ‘choked.’

During trip to Kenya last year multibillionaire investor Bill Gates encouraged Kenyans to adopt hybrid and GMO livestock to bolster production in the country, including the plantation of GMO grains.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

Yeah it’s “super” alright, super gross. What could go wrong with man messing with God’s creation, again, for the umpteenth time?

But, this is the future of conventional agriculture around the world. GMOs and fake, artificial meats and dairies are in store for the general populous.

Eventually it will turn into, ‘Don’t eat real meat and real dairy: eat our lab stuff – it’s much safer and healthier.’

[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

1 Timothy 4:1-3

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
