Early Blight

I visited a few tomato fields this week and found 2-4-week-old tomato plants with some early blight (Alternaria solani) and in some cases bad early blight lesions. This is very early in the season to be seeing this level of early blight. Many of the plants had a few flea beetle adults on the plant (fig 1) and in the areas where the early blight was found also had moderate to high flea beetle feeding (fig 2).
