Texas Agriculture Matters!
About us
The Texas Legislature established the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) in 1907. The agency's key objectives are to promote production agriculture, consumer protection, economic development and healthy living. The agriculture commissioner oversees the agency and is elected every four years. The current commissioner, Sid Miller, was first elected in 2014 and reelected in 2018 and 2022. TDA is a diversified state agency that provides value-added services through our regulatory and marketing and initiatives. TDA is headquartered in Austin and has five regional service offices, two sub-offices, three laboratories and five livestock export facilities. TDA’s mission is to partner with all Texans to make Texas the nation's leader in agriculture, fortify our economy, empower rural communities, promote healthy lifestyles, and cultivate winning strategies for rural, suburban and urban Texas through exceptional service and the common threads of agriculture in our daily lives.

Commissioner Miller congratulates the newest recipients of the national Healthy Meals Incentives Recognition Awards. Out of the eight awards just announced for the Southwest region, these three Texas school districts earned six of them – Collinsville ISD, North East ISD in San Antonio, and Sinton ISD. Coleman ISD won an award earlier this year. USDA and Action for Healthy Kids present the awards to school nutrition programs that have made significant improvements to the nutritional quality of their meals. Serving dishes such as the watermelon radish salad shown helped Sinton ISD earn awards in four out of eight categories so far, including Innovation in the Preparation of School Meals.
