Answer:

There is a 25% Increase in sales.

Explanation:

Last Season was 200 peaches. This season was 250. There is a 50 peaches difference. If you got 50 of 200 as a percentage, you would get 25%.

We got this by putting 50 over 200 as a fraction, 50/200

Then we simplify by 2, and get 25/100. That is as far as we need, and take the numerator as a percent since the denominator is 100.
