we decided to to build one yagi, vertical polarized,
at ground level, and with the half elements buried.

No need to bury half an element. A good ground screen will make for a virtual element for each element. There was an article a few years ago about a Brazilian vertical with half of the element in a well. Worked well (pardon the pun), but looking at the pictures, in the wet season the antenna was in a swamp so had a very good ground.

Good luck
