The Ruling on Zakat for Total Saved Money and Money Prepared for Trade

Question
A person has a certain amount of saved money that does not reach the nisab, and he has a specific trade which is a chicken farm, which also does not reach the nisab. However, the total profits and the saved amount together reach the nisab. Should the money be subjected to zakat?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: the saved money and the value of the farm chickens should be combined if they are for trade, and if the threshold is reached, all should be purified (zakat), and God knows best.
