I don't think ley farming should included or counted as a type of agroforestry because it does not include the growing of trees. By definition, ley farming involves growing of crops and pastures only, on the same piece of land. It does not integrate tree planting. Thank you. But alley farming is correct.
You should add one of the other types; Taungya system, Agrisilvicultural system, silvopastoral system and agrosilvopastoral system.
