Yes, would agree that most "real" farmers will use CC. A few because it weighs more, most because it is cheaper. We had CC in two Ford tractors and eventually ruined a rim on each one.

Unfortunately at least on our farm, there were often many other alligators in the swamp that more urgently needed attention. Most of the tractors that I have purchased were filled with CC. Several both front and rear. One of the first projects was always to remove that stuff, clean up the rims and install new tubes. I purchased wheel weights as necessary to meet my drawbar pull requirements. If the maximum drawbar pull/weight is necessary, I would use something rather than CC; e.g., washer fluid, and then add wheel weights as is required.
