Andy Tegethoff joins Jamie Wolf on The Source to look back on his 15 years at Jorgensen Land & Cattle and the growth of JLC's bull leasing and SmartBull programs.

Andy shares how he went from selling cars to becoming VP of Sales at JLC, how the bull leasing program has evolved over the years, and why leasing has become an increasingly popular option for cattle producers. They break down what makes a Jorgensen lease bull different, why two-year-old lease bulls are in such high demand, and how those bulls eventually move into the SmartBull program.

They also discuss the growth of SmartBulls across the country, changes in technology and inventory management at JLC, and how the operation has grown during Andy's time with the company.

Andy closes the conversation with advice for anyone looking to build a career in agriculture: step outside your comfort zone, try something new, and if you're going to do it, do it right.

Brian Jaeger joins Jamie on The Source to talk about the logistics behind moving Jorgensen bulls across the country.

Brian shares how his background in the cattle and trucking industries eventually brought him to Jorgensen Land & Cattle, where he now handles trucking and logistics. They break down what goes into coordinating lease bull deliveries and pickups, building a reliable trucking network, managing paperwork and schedules, and keeping customers informed along the way.

They also talk about the relationships Brian has built throughout agriculture and why making connections can open doors you never expected.

Jamie Wolf sits down with JLC Chief Marketing Officer Shannon Kubik to talk about her background in agriculture, her experience running across South Dakota with the 437 Project, and what she has brought to the Jorgensen Land & Cattle team.

They also walk through the newly updated JLC website and the tools available to producers, including Shop the Source, Ideal Beef Genetics, online sale information, bull filtering tools, JLC apparel, career opportunities, internships, and more.

To close things out, Shannon shares her advice for young people looking to build a career in agriculture, even if they didn’t grow up on a farm or ranch.
