Have you seen it in wheat, peas or canola as compared to a 9600 or 9610. Did the 9650 sts seem to have enough power or should the 9750 sts be the only machine to be considered. How was the quality and quantity of barley straw as compared to a 9610IJ I was told that there was still lots of straw in mid afternoon on a hot day and that each peice was quite long and easy to round bale.
