The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: An aquatic feed dispensing system (100) and a feed dispensing assembly (106) for controlled distribution of feed in aquatic environments are disclosed. The system (100) includes a buoyant support structure (102) configured to float on a water surface and support operational components. A feed storage hopper (104) is mounted on the buoyant support structure (102) and includes a downwardly tapering outlet to enable flow of feed material. The feed dispensing assembly (106) is fluidically coupled to feed storage hopper (104) and includes a rotatable disc (108) having at least one helical groove (110) configured to receive and convey feed material. A drive mechanism (112) imparts rotational motion to the rotatable disc (108) to enable controlled displacement of feed material toward an outlet passage (114). A propulsion arrangement (116) enables movement across the water surface, and a control unit (122) regulates feed dispensing and positioning to achieve uniform and controlled distribution.
