It should be noted that in the short term the price of cloning is very high. It costs over $10,000 per cow. This is a lot higher than the $1000 it costs now.

The industry is more likely to use the clones to replicate good breeders (i.e. cows that display the qualities most prized: good marbling, ability to survive on a diet of corn without getting too sick, etc.).

For the near future you will likely not be eating clones but rather the offspring of clones.
