Only Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee and Texas report a completed harvest. The harvest is only 68 percent complete in North Dakota. NCGA Firs Vice President Bart Schott of Kulm, North Dakota says - we have been blessed with decent harvest weather over the past week. However, moisture levels of more than 30 percent are still common in the northern part of the state.
