Wudinna District Council is a rural local government area on central Eyre Peninsula, South Australia. Its seat is Wudinna, on the Eyre Highway, 580 kilometres (360 mi) west of Adelaide. The district's economy is largely driven by agriculture, mainly cereal crops, with beef and sheep commonly farmed as well.
The District Council of Minnipa was established on 28 May 1925. Its boundaries were defined as including the hundreds of Minnipa, Yaninee, Pygery, Wudinna, Palabie, Wannamana, Mamblin, Warramboo, Kappakoola, Pordia and Cocata in the County of Le Hunte, and the hundreds of Condada, Moorkitabie, Carina, Addison and Travers in the County of Robinson, the latter five hundreds being annexed from the District Council of Streaky Bay. The inaugural councillors appointed were Charles James Rowen, Arthur William Christian, William Mitchell, Thomas Knight, Edwin James Turley, Ellery John Drummond Oswald, and Edward Beck Smith.
