In a feed supply system in which feed from a hopper is directed into down spouts by means of augers, agitators, gravity feed or the like, the down spouts terminating at a feed trough, a sensor capable of sensing a build up of feed is disposed at the end of the down spout and supplies a signal to terminate dispensing when excess feed is sensed.
