    Actually - I doubt it is possible to trademark the term "A2". Too short and too generic. And anyway - that's not what ATM did.

    Here is ATM's trademark:

    https://trademarks.justia.com/854/53/a2-85453431.html

    To violate the trademark competitors would need to use an "a2" using specific defined colours and a particular shape:

    The mark consists of the term "a2" in white contained within a blue oval all appearing above the term "milk" in blue, wherein a white droplet appears within the lower portion of the letter "a".
    There is no law stopping cows to produce A2 milk ... and I don't see any reasons why sellers would not be allowed to state this fact (if it is true). The A2 milk company has no monopoly on selling and marketing milk which contains only the A2 and not the A1 protein.

    Competition is good ...

    The hype surrounding A2 milk came about after the patenting of a genetic test by the a2 Milk Company. The patent allows the company to determine what type of protein a cow produces in its milk and therefore license dairy farmers that prove their cows express only A2 protein in their milk (and not A1 protein). A2 milk is marketed by the a2 Milk Company to contain only the A2 type of beta-casein.
