If you are worried about it then put a tap on the barrel.

Lay it down horizontally and leave the end with the tap raised slightly.

Now forget about it until temperatures have been below freezing for a week or two.

By now sediment will have settled to the low side and any water present will have settled and be frozen solid on the low side.

Open the tap and draw off a sample in a jar, if it looks good you are good to go.

If you still see particles in the jar then run it through a nylon or some other kind of filter first.

Anything too small for you to see should get taken care of by your tractors fuel filters.

Whatever does not drain out once frozen can be disposed of when it thaws in the spring.

Unless it has algae in it diesel is very stable and can sit for many many years and not go bad like gasoline does.
