Omaopio[1] is a farming area on the slopes of the volcano Haleakala (or Hale Akala) on the island of Maui.
[2] The western side of Haleakala is commonly known as Kula, and ridges of land run up the slopes of the volcano.
Traditional crops include the Kula onion (Granex), broccoli, beans, and cabbage.
More recently the area has seen a large influx of horses, and commercial stables.
Sugar cane fields bracketed the lower end of the road, but crop plantings were discontinued in 2016.
