Tech/Engineering - Agriculture / animal feed factory / silos | | Dutch term or phrase: bijstort | Appears in a quality audit report on a animal feed factory:
1) 'De meeste toevoegingsmiddelen worden gedoseerd via weger 5 (100 kg), via bijstort op het glv. of via een bijstort voor gemedicineerde voormengsels net boven de menger.'
2) 'Aan de randen van de bijstort op het gelijkvloers was oud product aangekoekt van vorige bijstorten.'
What would be the English term for this?
Many thanks in advance! |

| Grading comment Dear Hans, Henk (and Saskia and Elise),
Thank you for your solutions. I would like to split the Kudoz here, but do not know how to do it.
Hans, you are right in that 'bijstort' refers in some parts of the text I am translating to the feeder / inlet (pipe). However, Henk rightly points out that 'bijstorten' should be understood as 'additional supply' (or 'added supplies'). I only discovered this ambiguity after going through the text again after reading your suggestions. Again, many thanks! ;-)
