trough/tank for controlling the intake of feed rations

The reference below describes "lick tanks", which are used to control water intake by cattle.


Lick Tanks
Lick tanks are one method of delivering and controlling intake of free-choice liquid supplements. Lick tanks are available in different sizes with varying numbers of wheels. Intake control is accomplished by placement of tanks and/or restriction of wheel movement. Lick tanks can be moved to different locations within the pasture to increase or limit access to liquid supplements. Lick tanks should not be placed next to water sources or gathering areas as this may encourage overconsumption. If overconsumption occurs, move the tank to a location less frequented by cattle. If underconsumption occurs, move the lick tank closer to water sources or to locations where cattle gather. Another method of reducing lick tank intake is to restrict wheel movement or remove one of the wheels. This will limit access to the supplement, reducing intake. Several management factors must be considered when using lick tanks.

The text above describes a tank for controlling the water intake by animals.

Since you are translating a patent, a new invention, I believe the idea is the same, i.e., a tank for controlling the intake of animal feed (feed rations).

A palavra "trough" parece apropriada no contexto oferecido. Mas, conforme o contexto geral, poderia ser "drum" ou outra palavra parecida.

Please add the word "intake" to the end of my suggestion!
