Claim 10:
11. A soil probe assembly for collecting soil samples, comprising:
a frame member;
a wheel coupled to the frame member, the wheel configured to rotate with respect to an axis, the wheel including:
a wheel hub coupled to the frame member,
a rim coupled to the wheel hub, the rim having at least four planar edges, and
a tubular soil probe coupled to at least one of the at least four planar edges, the tubular soil probe extending perpendicular to a surface of the at least one of the at least four planar edges, the soil probe having an extraction opening and an ejection opening, the soil probe extending radially with respect to the axis such that the extraction opening is distal from the axis, the soil probe configured to receive a soil sample at the extraction opening and configured to release the soil sample from the ejection opening;
a funnel having a collection opening and a delivery opening, the collection opening proximate to the ejection opening, the funnel configured to receive the released soil sample at the collection opening and configured to drop the soil sample from the delivery opening; and
a collection hamper connectable to the frame member, the collection hamper configured to receive the soil sample dropped by the funnel.
