Heilongjiang Province, a major grain-producing region in China, faces ecological vulnerabilities that directly affect its sustainable development. A scientific assessment of the spatiotemporal characteristics vulnerability and influencing factors is crucial for deeper understanding environmental issues provides theoretical support enhancing regional governance capabilities. The SRP model, combined with AHP-CRITIC weighting method, was employed to assess Province’s vulnerability’s temporal differentiation trends between 2000 2020. aggregation kinds were examined using spatial autocorrelation. GeoDetector used determine main elements affecting province. Additionally, status 2030 predicted CA-Markov model. findings indicate (1) average EVI values Province during three periods 0.323, 0.317, 0.347, respectively, indicating medium level across province; initially decreased then worsened. Spatially, distribution followed pattern “high east west, low north south”. (2) Spatial agglomeration evident, high-high (H-H) primarily occurring heavily extremely vulnerable areas characterized by high human activity, while low–low (L-L) mainly found mildly marginally favorable natural background. (3) Biological abundance, net primary productivity, dry degree, PM2.5 drivers vulnerability, interactions these amplifying their impact on vulnerability. (4) model prediction results indicated an upward trend overall 2030, reflecting decline environment. study indicates closely linked geographic conditions influenced through interplay several elements. Based zoning results, this paper proposes recommendations regions different levels, aiming provide future restoration
