Seoul - Yonhap
Domestic milk producers have been selling \"organic\" milk products at much higher prices than standard milk products but a recent study found that the organic products were no different than standard milk. Consumers Korea, a civic organization devoted to consumer protection, said its study showed that the organic milk products cost up to three times more than standard milk products despite not containing fewer harmful substances or bacteria. The group conducted the study on organic milk products from three major dairy companies including Namyang Dairy Products Co. and Pasteur Milk between June and August under the sponsorship of the Fair Trade Commission. \"There was actually no difference between the organic and standard milk products,\" the group said in a news conference.
