Farmers Battle to Reclaim 'Milk' Term

Australian dairy farmers are fighting to reclaim the term 'milk' from plant-based alternatives, citing a recent court ruling as their opportunity.

Australian dairy farmers claim the plant-based drinks industry has "stolen" the word milk and they are pointing to a recent court ruling as an opportunity to claim it back.

The farmers argue that using the term "milk" for non-dairy products confuses consumers and undermines their industry, which has traditionally used the term for centuries.
