Abstract: Rational differentiated utilization of cultivated land can effectively coordinate the contradiction between ecological protection, cultivated land utilization, and urban development. Therefore, this article adopts the southern section of the Yellow River Basin as an example, starting with vulnerability and resilience and then formulating an index system for evaluating farmland ecological vulnerability and farmland resilience. Moreover, this article combines Future Land-Use Simulation–Urban Growth Boundaries (FLUS–UGBs) to conduct urban development boundary simulations, which take the urban development boundary as restrictions and comprehensive division and determine the differentiated utilization zoning strategies for cultivated land to achieve coordinated development between ecological protection, cultivated land use, and urban development. The following results are presented: (1) The ecological vulnerability of the research area mainly involves low-to-medium vulnerability; the western and middle sections of the research area demonstrate high and low ecological vulnerability, respectively. (2) Areas with high resilience of cultivated land are mainly located in the mid-eastern part of the research area, and those with low resilience mainly involve the western mountains. (3) The four-quadrant method, the PLUS model, and the FLUS-UGB module are employed to determine differentiated usage zones for cultivated land to achieve rational allocation and effective use of resources.
