Toll bell sounds when farm animals eat (8)

I believe the answer is:

feedings

'when farm animals eat' is the definition.

'toll bell sounds' is the wordplay.
'toll' becomes 'fee' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'bell sounds' becomes 'dings'.
'fee'+'dings'='FEEDINGS'

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
