The present invention relates to an automatic feeding apparatus for a sow. The apparatus comprises: a feeding unit having a feedbox for storing feed which is supplied through a feed transfer pipe of a feed storage tank; a control unit for controlling the operation of a motor operated to discharge the feed in the feedbox, and controlling the adequate amount, number of times, or interval of feed supply; a feed bucket for storing the feed discharged from the feeding unit; and a sensing means which is mounted on the feed stored inside the feed bucket, and provides information to the control unit by generating an electric signal when the sow touches the sensing element while eating the feed. The present invention can increase productivity by enabling a sow to be raised in an optimal state while minimizing manpower and working time required for raising the sow. |
