Explanation:

By solving for each option one by one

In 2016 ,

Total trees planted = 1800 + 2500 + 1800 + 2000  = 8100

In 2020 ,Total trees planted = 2250 + 2100 + 2000 + 1750 = 8100

In 2017 ,Total trees planted = 2500 + 2300 + 1850 + 1800 = 8450

In 2018 ,Total trees planted = 2300 + 2400 + 1840 + 1760= 8300

So , Trees planted are maximum in 2017
