Jens-Kristian Sørensen (born March 21, 1987), nicknamed Farmer, is a Danish professional football (soccer) defender who currently plays for Danish Superliga side Aalborg Boldspilklub (AaB). He also plays the role of central midfielder or even striker.

Jens-Kristian Sørensen grew up in the small village of Biersted, and was nicknamed Farmer as a joke, because Biersted it is so small it almost isn't a village but rather a place. He is known for his physical strength and good heading abilities. He was due to make his first youth international appearance for Denmark, when called up to the Danish u-20 side for the 2006 Milk Cup in Northern Ireland, but an injury forced him to withdraw from the team, making way for AaB teammate Lasse Nielsen.^[1]

On October 4, 2006, Sørensen made his senior debut for AaB, when they faced FC Nordsjælland at Farum Park.
