Position the bracing so that after the plywood is installed your sink will sit at the desired height. Size the plywood so that it stops short of reaching the back side of the cabinet and will clear the plumbing when installed.

Use silicone sealant to seal everywhere that the farm apron sink meets the countertop. The silicone sealant used to seal the sink will hold the sink in place.
