I agree the term silvopasture is not a synonym for meadow orchards. A meadow orchard is specifically low density/sparse trees, while silvopasture indicates a forest/woodland, i.e. denser tree cover. Also the meadow in meadow orchard can be used for either pasture or cutting the grass, while silvopasture implies pasture.
