If you are filling from a storage tank into your tractor, is the tank stood level or is it sloping slightly? Should slope towards end away from normal outlet and have means to drain at other end as diesel tank will always condensate. You may also have a pin hole leak on the tank top?
If that is not the problem, fill your tractor tank completely to prevent condensation possibility between use (you do not say how often this problem occurs - daily or monthly). Otherwise, check what you are putting in (eg. water may be in your fill can) check for ingress possibilities on tractor tank etc.
Basically, find the source, then fix it.
