QUESTION: What hardware is required to install an agricultural weather station?

ANSWER: A minimal set of tools and hardware is required to install a weather station in an agricultural field or a wine yard.

The main component of the installation involves installing a post onto which to mount the weather station. For example, the MeteoHelix IoT Pro weather stations offer a universal metal mount which can be easily installed on any diameter pipe or post with readily available metal hose clamps, or due to its lightweight, with outdoor UV resistant zip-ties. A Davis Vantage Pro weather station on the other hand comes with u-bolts and accepts only pipe mounting.
