Abstract
A containment housing contains environment probes and a data transmit module below grade of a field. A breakaway antenna assembly couples to the data module and transmits data from the sensors real time. The breakaway antenna includes a 360-degree hinge and is self-righting, thereby allowing farm implements to move past the antenna without breaking antenna.
