Daru labu is a woreda in the Oromia Region of Ethiopia. Located in the West Hararghe Zone, Daru labu is bordered on the south by the Shebelle River which separates it from the Bale Zone, on the west by the Arsi Zone, on the northwest by Guba Koricha, on the north by the Habro, and on the east by Boke. Towns in Darolebu include Mechara and Micheta.
Coffee is an important cash crop of this woreda. Over 50 square kilometers are planted with this crop.[1]
Darolebu was selected in 2006 by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development as an area for voluntary resettlement for farmers from overpopulated areas. Along with Boke and Kuni, Darolebu became the new home for 3308 families.[2]
