I found that Israel has a springtime crop of both barley (firstfruits were to be offered up 3rd day after Passover) and wheat (the wheat was made into the 2 wave loaves made of leavened and unleavened bread which was offered up by the High Priest in the Temple 50 days later). The wave loaves are like the Jewish and Gentile believers.
Ruth worked through the barley harvest and then the wheat harvest which ended about 2 weeks later.
Spring wheat was planted in the fall and grew over the winter, just as the spring crop in the Southwestern US does. It took me years to see that Israel also has their big wheat crop, planted in Nisan (the true first month for Israel), and in 4 months gathered -- in late summer.
The Jews have rules that insist that this late August crop must be saved until the spring of the following year and presented as Firstfruits offering to the Lord on Nisan 16 two days after Passover. They must not eat of that late summer crop until it is offered the next spring at Firstfruits.
That study about these grain crops took me some weeks of research, and now the above link reveals the complexity and shows that others are pointing this out too.
This covered in more detail in my study here, The Feasts Fulfilled, Grains, Grapes..., and the details continue to grow, and point to Book of Ruth as having important parallels for this season of the year and the Rapture.
Christ is like the grain of corn that died and it brought forth much fruit (the sheaf offered up at Firstfruits) when He arose and many came out of their graves also, and the Pentecost offering 50 days later is two loaves with leaven (like Jews and Gentiles, believers, the Church) which is the grain crop beaten, ground and made into bread, the harvest made into the completed loaves which may be compared to the Rapture, the believers that came from Christ's death, raised up to the Lord.
Notes added 19 July 2022.
Christ fulfilled Passover on 14 Nisan the first month, He fulfilled Unleavened bread, He fulfilled Firstfruits 16 Nisan, and Pentecost 50 days later for believers.
Will the resurrections of believers compare with these grain harvests? Will the fast of Tish b'Av which is in mid-August be about the time of the believers being taken up, and the time of the lament by Jews, that 'summer is past and we are not saved?']
It has occurred to me that the Church may be the crop planted about Passover, April, which is harvested 4 months later about mid-August. That crop would be the first planted during that sacred year that begins in Nisan, about April. The 2 wave loaves might represent the resurrections of the saints who arose about the time Jesus arose, and also the Raptured and the Tribulation saints, the resurrections in general. The great harvest of Pentecost would be the great harvest of the Tribulation, the converts of the 144,000, planted in late autumn, wintered over, harvested about late May. The Pentecost harvest is planted late in the sacred year, after the Rapture.
I will try to update my studies on Boaz and Ruth, and that I believe their son Obed represents the 144,000 sealed servants of God. Obed's name means "serving."
Perhaps Ruth continued to glean wheat until mid-August and her marriage took place in late summer it appears. Some charts leave out the late summer wheat harvest planted 4 months earlier.

Thanks for the "likes." Encouraging right when I need it.
I've kept working on my study of Boaz and Ruth, and what happens to Naomi, for a long time, it is really expanding in details. (My main study is Feasts Fulfilled, but a bit is in Typology in Ruth.)
Some say threshing points to the Church in the Tribulation, so I'm studying about Ruth's hand gathering, and taking the sacks of grain on to Naomi. Threshing can be done by hand by whacking stalks in a barrell, or beating with a stick. Many details are proving out, fitting the Rapture.
Also, I'm finding that Joel chapter 1, that I think reveals Israel not gathered in the Rapture, has an emphasis on the grain harvest.
I'll pick up a little here from new changes which will be added to my Typology of Joel notes:
Joel 1:11 Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished. [This denounces those who were to care for God's people of His fields and vineyard and did not. I believe that this verse tends to confirm that the Church, like the wheat and barley crops of spring, has been gathered, and the Jews have been left.]
The harvest is perished. [These Jews haven't been included in the harvest of souls. A silent harvest of the world has been accomplished, but the fields of Jewish souls without Jesus stand desolate, out in the open. This brings to mind the Scripture, "The summer is past, the harvest is over and we are not saved." Jeremiah 8:20]
This Scripture adds to the study about God's grain and Israel:
Amos 9:9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.
Obed, son of Boaz and Ruth, depicts the 144,000 Jewish evangelists and their converts, and is shown in the late summer grain harvest of August which was planted four months before.
