Dr. Herrman serves as Professor and Director of the Office of the Texas State Chemist, which is the state department that administers the Texas 
Commercial Feed and Fertilizer Control Acts. The Office includes two units, the Texas Feed and Fertilizer Control Service and the Agricultural Analytical Service. The Texas Feed and Fertilizer Control Service is the state agency that regulates 19 million tons of feed and fertilizer worth $6 billion distributed in Texas by over 4000 facilities and guarantors located in Texas, the United States, and abroad. The Agricultural Analytical Service supports regulatory activities of the Office of the Texas State Chemist, Texas A&M research faculty, the nation’s Food Emergency Response Network and Food and Drug Administration through chemical and microbiological analyses. The Office of the Texas State Chemist, by law, is administratively housed within Texas Agrilife Research and is the largest unit in the experiment station.
