PER CURIAM.
The issue on appeal in this case is whether the bankruptcy debtors' breeding livestock, exempt from the bankruptcy estate by virtue of state statute, is also protected by the lien avoidance provisions of 11 U.S.C. § 522(f)(2)(B) (1982) as a "tool of the trade." We conclude that § 522(f) permits the lien on this debtor's breeding stock to be avoided to the $5000 limit of the state exemption.
