Biology specialist Kurt Zoglauer is now working with Humboldt University in Berlin on a project that will clone ideal Christmas trees. Zoglauer points to the fact that approximately 40% of Tanenbaums are ill-suited to the holidays and yet, despite their inadequacy, they still take up room on arboreal farms for at least 10 years.
Germany's government has teamed up with Zoglauer in his effort to produce model flora. Those who have come on board have designated the year of 2016 as the most reasonable date for the launch of the forest-based cloning endeavor. Perfection is the standard that the scientists will look to, making no exceptions along the way for dented trunks or discolored foliage.

Trend Themes
1. Christmas Tree Cloning - The potential for genetic modification and selective breeding can lead to higher quality and more eco-friendly Christmas tree options in the future.
2. Agricultural Efficiency - The cloning of Christmas trees can be extended to other crops and plants to improve the yield, reduce waste, and optimize the use of resources in agriculture.
3. Consumer Demands - Consumers are seeking more sustainable and personalized products, which could drive the demand for cloned Christmas trees and other genetically modified agricultural products.
Industry Implications
1. Agriculture - Cloning can significantly impact the agriculture industry, especially in improving crop production and sustainability.
2. Biotechnology - Biotech companies can benefit from the demand for genetic modification and selective breeding in various crops and plants.
3. Retail - Retailers specializing in Christmas trees can use the potential benefits of cloning to provide better quality trees and meet increasing consumer demands for sustainable and personalized products.
