Populating select list from a taxonomy term field

I’m trying to populate a select list dynamically by pulling its values from a taxonomy term field linked to the current-user account. Just to clarify, below function is a hook defined by a module that came with a custom installation profile. It is basically used to create fields on a specific form. So, my custom module has-

function some_function_attributes() {         global $user;       $user_fields = user_load($user->uid);       $termid = $user_fields->field_user_organization['und']['0']['tid'];       $taxonomy_term = taxonomy_term_load($termid);       //dsm($taxonomy_term);       $options = field_get_items('taxonomy_term', $taxonomy_term, 'field_org_environment','select');       dsm($options);       return array(         'environment' => array(         'type' => 'select',         'options' => $options,         'name' => t('Environment'),         )       );     } 

Allowed values in the field (for this user)-

E1|Env1

E2|Env2


Here’s the devel screenshot for dsm($options); enter image description here

So, its populating the right field but not in the way it should.


Actual form element looks like this- enter image description here

Currently, its just returning the array and I can’t figure out what I missed. Been banging my head to the wall for this- How would I populate Env1 and Env2 in this select-list ?
