About Poochera
Poochera is a small grain belt town 60 km north-west of Streaky Bay on the Eyre Peninsula, South Australia. The township of Poochera was not surveyed until 1920, and its name is thought to be taken from the name of King Poojeri, a local aboriginal who died in 1917. A nearby hill is also named Poochera, possibly stemming from the same origin.
