RAF [[Alconbury]], three miles north of Huntingdon, is being reorganised after a period of obsolescence following the departure of the USAF, to be the focus of RAF/USAFE intelligence operations, with activities at [[Upwood]] and [[Molesworth (town)|Molesworth]] being transferred there. Most of Cambridgeshire is agricultural. Close to Cambridge is the so-called [[Silicon Fen]] area of high-technology (electronics, computing and biotechnology) companies.
