Abstract: The aim of the research was to assess regional changes in cattle (excluding cows) and cow population. Surveys were carried out at the provincial level in 2010-2023, and at the county level on the basis of 2010 and 2020 agricultural census data. The surveys show that the processes of spatial concentration of cattle population in Poland are occurring faster in the case of cows, and they are also more advanced 62 and 93 counties with the highest cattle population and counties with the highest cattle density without cows and cows, using 20% and 30% of agricultural land in Poland. However, there was no correlation of the level of cattle stocking without cows and cows in 2010 in individual counties with changes in stocking rates by 2020. It was found that in the case of both studied groups of animals, the stocking is located mainly in the belt from Podlaskie to Wielkopolskie provinces. The fastest depopulation process occurs in southeastern Poland.
