The recently discovered X(3872) has many possible interpretations. We study the production of X(3872) with PANDA at GSI for the antiproton-proton collision with two possible interpretations of X(3872). One is as a loosely bound molecule of D mesons, while another is a 2P charmonium state {chi}{sub c1(2P)}. Using effective couplings we are able to give numerical predictions for the production near the threshold and the production associated with {pi}{sup 0}. We also study the possible background near the threshold production for X(3872){yields}J/{psi}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}. With the designed luminosity 1.5 fb{sup -1} per year of PANDA we find that the event number of pp{yields}J/{psi}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} near the threshold is at the order of 10{sup 6}-10{sup 8}. Our study shows that two interpretations are distinguishable from the line shape of the production.
