[0002] Aquaculture is an important part of agricultural production. The species farmed include fish, shrimp, shellfish and many other aquatic animals. Due to the limited natural resources and environmental protection and ecological requirements faced by the fishing industry, people pay more attention to and promote the development of commercial aquaculture.

[0003] With the development of aquaculture, more and more fish need to be fed with feed in order to grow faster and meet market demand. At present, most fish feeds are granular substances, which are put into the fish ponds for fish farming to eat. When feeding aquatic products, the traditional feeding method is that the breeders throw the feed by hand or use tools such as wooden shovels to throw the feed onto the water surface, let the feed sink naturally, and complete the feeding.

[0004] However, in the above-mentioned artificial feeding method, people can only stand on the shore, resulting in a limited feeding area. Many aquatic products located in the center of the fish pond are not easy to eat feed, which affects their growth. In addition, under high-density breeding conditions, high requirements are placed on the feed, which needs to be evenly and quantitatively delivered. The artificial feeding method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there are problems such as inaccurate measurement and uneven feeding. Therefore, it is urgent to design a quantitative feeder for aquatic concentrated feed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
