Feronia Inc. Comments on Bloomberg Report

Further to the announcement made by Feronia Inc. ("Feronia" or the "Company")
(TSX VENTURE:FRN) on July 3, 2013 in which it provided an update on the new law
"Loi Portant Principes Fondamentaux Relatifs a L'Agriculture" (the "Agriculture
Law"), the Company wishes to comment on a report published by Bloomberg on July
12 concerning possible changes to the Agriculture Law.


According to the report which quotes directly from the DRC Agriculture Minister,
the Agriculture Law, which purports to limit foreign ownership of agriculture
projects, is being revised as part of a process of "reassuring eventual
investors" as the government looks to encourage investment into the country's
agricultural sector.


The Company has been unable to confirm the contents of this report at this time
and is not aware of any official pronouncements in the DRC in respect of
amendments to the Agriculture Law. Feronia will provide shareholders with
further updates concerning the Agriculture Law as relevant information becomes
available.
