It is always a good week when you can quote The Art of War in a presentation to the Governor. It was a distinct honor to present a policy proposal to, and answer questions from, our Governor, his Chief of Staff and members of his cabinet last week.

My closing statement summarized the goal of the proposal:

"Opportunities multiply as they are seized, and embracing solar farming is an opportunity with multiplicative positive implications for rural economic development. It is imperative Louisiana actively pursue this opportunity."
