Sophie Jonsson is studying a Bachelor of Agronomy at the University of Queensland, with a focus on crop production, soil health and sustainable farming systems. Growing up across mixed farming enterprises, including avocado, grain and cattle operations, has shaped her strong connection to agriculture and practical understanding of on-farm challenges. Sophie has a particular interest in crop nutrition and soil management to improve productivity and sustainability. As a 2026 AgriFutures Horizon Scholar, supported by CRDC and GRDC, she is looking forward to contributing to research and innovation that strengthens Australia’s cropping industries.
