Biodiversity refers to the variety of all life forms; the different plants, animals, microorganisms, the genes they contain and the ecosystems they form. Biodiversity is critical for the survival of all earths species, including humans.
The Cumberland Plain Woodland once covered the Holroyd City Council area. Today, due to the expansion of urban development, the woodland exists only in fragments and is easily disturbed, such as weed invasion, mowing, soil compaction, rubbish dumping and frequent fire.

The aim of this Citywide Bushland Management Plan is to provide a working document for the sustainable management, restoration, protection and rehabilitation of native vegetation and associated habitats within the Holroyd LGA.
