We calculate the color-octet contribution to the double spin asymmetry of J/{psi} hadroproduction with nonzero transverse momenta at fixed target energies {radical} (s) {approx_equal}40GeV. It is shown that the color-octet contribution is dominant in the asymmetries. The expected asymmetries and statistical errors in a future option of DESY HERA with longitudinally polarized protons at HERA-{rvec N} should allow one to distinguish between different parametrizations for the polarized gluon distribution in the proton. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
