Based on FAO data, the paper presents trends in nitrogen (N) input and output in Poland. As N input (N_inp), nitrogen from mineral fertilisers, manure application, biological fixation, and deposition was included. The N outputs (N_out) include the N contained in crop harvest (main products and by-products). The trend analyses were carried out for the period before (1961-1989) and after (1990-2018) the changes in the political and economic systems. Additionally, trends in the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and nitrogen surpluses (N_S) are presented for these periods. In both compared periods, the mean values of N budget indicators in Poland were (kg N∙ha^-1 UAA): N_inp 120 and 125, N_out 61 and 84, N_S 60 and 41 and NUE 53 and 67%, respectively. The estimated Y_max, which represents the N_out value reached at saturating N fertilisation, reached the values of 127 and 263 kg N∙ha^-1 UAA in these periods. The difference in these values suggests a significant impact of agronomy improvement on N_out in the recent period. The trends of nitrogen within 16 regions in period 2002-2019, based on national data, resulted in a significant variation in N indicators. The values found were in the following ranges (kg N∙ha^-1 UAA): N_inp 78-167; N_out 62-99; N_S 15-83 and Y_max 139-317. The NUE ranged from 50-81%. The obtained results indicate that in Poland and its regions there is still a need to improve of the nitrogen efficiency.
