I'm not going to say it was really good nor am I going to say it was really bad. It fell right in the middle.
The farm thing was probably the most hospitable thing he probably could of came up with. Who knows, in the 24th century there are probably farms that still exsist and are ran pretty much like how they would of been ran in the 20th century with a few technological upgrades. Just look at the Vineyards where Picard's family lived, They did not look 24th century at all. Remember Janeway supposively grew up on a farm in Indiana. Perhaps she may of been thinking of her home.
"Caretaker" is also the most expensive Trek episode ever produced. So a few cut backs might explain it as well.
it might have been the most expensive episode up to that point. I know they were saying that Barge of the Dead was also the most expensive episode up to that point. And I'm sure episodes of Enterprise became more expensive too
Nope! It's "Caretaker" It cost more to produce that epsiode than it did "The Wrath of Khan" It was estimated at $23 Billion . I haven't heard of any episode of Enterprise costing that much and I'm pretty sure "Barge of the Dead" did not go over $23 Billion.

Why don't you just Google Most expensive Trek Episode. And it will be the first (and only) episode mentioned. It's also in Disc 5 of the special features of the Voyager Season 1 DVD.
Here's your link:
Caretaker Background Look under the background information 13th bullet down

Due to the cost of building Voyager's bridge, converting the old TNG sets, reshooting the scenes shot with Geneviève Bujold and the ones after Janeway's hairstyle was altered, some very ambitious special effects scenes and a substantial amount of location filming, this episode is, to date, the most expensive Star Trek episode ever produced at $23 million in 1995. When adjusted for inflation, it proved even more expensive than Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
I haven't seen or read about any other episode costing more.

I always wondered why an uber-power being, dragging a 24th century ship and crew 75K LY, would choose to greet them in a 20th (possibly even 19th) century manner.
Because it's Voyager and all things come from 20th Century Earth.
