tomato blossoms dropping or withering

I have this tomato which came up in the mulch and it is now about three to four feet high.
It is getting lots of blossoms on it but they just wither or drop off.
It gets water and it gets plenty of sunlight.I gave it some cow manure recently and watered it in,but still the blossoms drop.It hasn't set any fruit yet.
Does it need another one to keep it company orshould I rip it out and plant another one.

I'd suggest leaving it alone for a while. Only water when the plant absolutely needs it, and no more fertiliser. Let it struggle for a bit.
