As far as the developed world, Britain has much more efficient farming practices, better transportation, storage and processing facilities.
Employees are accustomed to personal clouds that provide easy access to information over multiple devices and IT has embraced cloud services to gain cheaper storage and processing power.
FORBES: The world moves to cloud. Is it time for cloud-based mobile management?
Cloud adds new computing models that changes storage and processing.

Intel is due to unveil a variety of cellphone and other portable device storage and processing chips, some of which are bound to end up in future Apple products.
Incremental quantitative advances in bandwidth, video frames per second, cloud based storage and processing and other technologies have reached a tipping point, with qualitatively new opportunities for learning now emerging.
Major software companies, including Oracle, IBM, Google and even Amazon.com, are all beginning to offer their own forms of utility computing applications, such as software-as-a-service and rented storage and processing power.
One benefit of being in the "server farm" business is that so many businesses across sectors depend on having access to massive amounts of data, storage and processing power to keep their businesses running.
Another important factor in the latest round of thin vs. thick (lots more storage and processing capability) clients is that the current generation of mobile devices offer light weight attractive packaging, fast access to content (no wait for boot and application changes) and reasonable battery life (although this is an area of much needed development).

Thin client (lower storage capacity and processing power) products such as smart phones and tablets would greatly benefit from the larger storage capacity that 20 nm NAND flash will provide.
Amazon's Web Services, which pipe applications, processing and storage over the Internet, may eventually let companies escape the confines of their data centers and pay for cheap, scalable processing and storage as easily as they pay for water or electricity.
Amazon's (nasdaq: AMZN - news - people ) Web Services, which pipe applications, processing and storage over the Internet, may eventually let companies escape the confines of their data centers and pay for cheap, scalable processing and storage as easily as they pay for water or electricity.
Of course, I assume that my privacy is protected during collection, transmission, storage, and processing of all my personal data.
When we hear about big data "solutions, " they tend to focus on computational approaches -- storage, search and processing -- with human intuition largely absent.
Today the increased processing power of mobile devices as well as more ubiquitous network connectivity and the ability of data centers to provide (almost) always available storage capacity and applications, are causing a return to thin client computers accessing larger shared processing and storage resources.

Numerous digital data sources are becoming available because of a combination of increasing data storage, data processing and data transmission productivity (effective available bandwidth appears to double approximately every 21 months).
The Japanese firm is pinning its hopes on the processing power and storage capacity of its new console, which will include a revolutionary processing unit based on the new Cell chip, developed with IBM and Toshiba.
Instead, companies like Google will host the world's data processing and storage--we'll just pay the bills.
These numbers may sound large, but they are still dwarfed by the information processing and storage capacity of nature.
Eventually, Dutra says, Sun plans to reduce those numbers to zero, renting out the company's processing and storage capabilities from external data centers.
Instead, companies like Google (nasdaq: GOOG - news - people ) will host the world's data processing and storage--we'll just pay the bills.
In a country where 30% to 40% of farm produce perishes due to a lack of processing and storage facilities, such innovations are a cost-effective solution for many farmers.
Until the last few years, they have been stymied by the cost of storage, slower processing speeds and the flood of data itself, spread sloppily across scores of different databases inside one company.
By moving IT infrastructure to a centralized computing "power plant" rather than hosting their own processing and storage, Carr says, companies are able to buy computing resources at lower prices and avoid large initial technology investments.
MySQL's lighter-weight database system may also fit into Sun's ambitions of becoming a major player in "utility computing, " a model of information technology infrastructure that pipes in software applications, processing and storage over the Internet rather than from a company's own data centers.
Sun's announcement marks the information technology industry's latest step toward "utility computing, " a grid system in which companies pipe in data processing and storage from faraway server farms, says Nicholas Carr, author of The Big Switch, a book on utility computing published earlier this week.
The transition to digital image processing and storage has brought mighty companies such as Kodak to their knees and spawned a great many consumer electronic companies that have created image capture and display devices with features and capabilities that would never have been possible with analog technology.
The virtual reconstruction of Implenia's data center pulled information about the layout of servers and storage, the devices' temperatures, power consumption and data processing over the Internet to IBM's servers, where they were built into a 3-D virtual world model.
"Benefits to firms will include faster file storage, computer back-up and processing for example, " he said.
