Default Tomato leaves

Isn't it a bit early for the lower leaves to be yellowing and dying? The
top half of the plant seems OK and still growing, if not as vigorously
as a month ago.

What's more, they have gone flop before yellowing. I am afraid that
it is not long for this world.

Just break off all the lower leaves up to the green ones.
The plant doesn't need them now. It's normal in comercial crops toremove
the lower leavs up to where the fruit is colouring
