Abstract
These days our coasts have been damaged by the polluted water resulting from the construction of industry on the shore, increasing population and urbanization. The destruction of ecosystem has induced many problems to aquaculture such that it raises the production cost of aquatic products for eating. For solving these problems aquafarm has been moving to the land. This paper intends to describe the automatic feeding system for the inland fish farm. An existent automatic feeding system has problems such that feed quantity is not accurate and feed itself is broken by feed motor. But a proposed system in this paper is more accurate than the existent system in view of feed quantity by using the combination of valve and load-sell. Resultantly, the system can safely transfer feed to inland nursery tank. Through several experiments using a real system, the effectiveness of the proposed system is verified under all conditions.
