Correct Answer: 225%


Solution : Production of maize in the year 2017 = 20
Production of maize in the year 2019 = 65
Increase in production of maize from the year 2017 to 2019 = 65 – 20 = 45
Percentage increase in production of maize = $\frac{45}{20}\times 100$ = 225%
Hence, the correct answer is 225%.
