In the rest of the world this advice would be considered dangerous, since
the authorities have a right to check what's in your tank. It might be unlikely that an 'ordinary' user who happened to do an occasional deal with farmer will be caught, but a farmer whose consumption is unexpectedly high can certainly expect sanctions. However the US may be different 'automotively' I would be surprised if the US were any different in this respect. (My short and rude respone to your advice is "horse manure".)
