PETALING JAYA: Shares of Lay Hong Bhd fell yesterday, following news that production at its Jeram 1 farm in Selangor had been suspended after Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) had been found in the eggs exported from the farm.

Lay Hong, which is engaged in integrated livestock farming, closed half a sen lower to 35 sen at 5pm yesterday.
