ABSTRACT:
An improved method and apparatus are disclosed for dispensing feed from a storage hopper to a closed-loop trough for simultaneous distribution of the feed to selectively positioned feed stations. A conveyor in the trough is used for displacing the feed from the storage hopper along the length of the trough to dispensing openings over the feed stations which are maintained covered by suitable means such as a sliding cutoff until feed is distributed uniformly throughout the trough. The openings are then uncovered in concert to simultaneously distribute feed from the trough to the feed stations.
