A Victoria Police spokesperson said the body found by a farmer in a paddock at Bunguluke is yet to be formally identified.
Officers notified the family of missing South Australian woman Colleen South that a body had been discovered in Bunguluke, close to where the 58-year-old had gone missing weeks prior.
Ms South was reported missing at the start of July and her Hyundai was located abandoned in a ditch off Mackies Road, Bunguluke, which is 15kms east of Wycheproof, on July 3.
An autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause of death.
