Cloning technology can expand the reproductive potential of the best animals, allowing breeders to keep up with demand for their semen, embryos and offspring. Cloning is a valuable tool in any strategic breeding program because it can more quickly and precisely extend elite genetics for additional embryo or semen production, increased breeding opportunities, protection from untimely loss of superior individuals, and more generational influence of producers’ best genetics.  By cloning the most elite animals, with the most sought-after genetics or greater disease resistance, breeders can advance the efficiency, quality and consistency of their meat and milk production.

With cattle, there are always chances for unexpected events that cause injury or death.  When an animal is gone, its unique and valuable genetics vanish.  These tragic events can be costly, and cattle of the highest-caliber are irreplaceable.

Through the use of genetic preservation, valuable cell lines and genetic influence are never lost.  By collecting a simple tissue sample, Bovance can preserve an animal’s DNA and store it indefinitely.  When the time is right to bring back that animal’s genetics; Bovance then can help create a new cloned animal with the same genetics as the original.
