The inclusive reaction ..pi../sup -/p..--> pi../sup 0/+X was investigated at 5 GeV with a statistics of approx. =1000 ..pi../sup 0/ mesons. The average inclusive characteristics of the ..pi../sup 0/ mesons were obtained. It is established that the ..pi../sup 0/ mesons are produced mainly in the beam-fragmentation region and in the central region. A similarity is observed between the distributions in p/sub perpendicular//

and p*/sub parallel// for ..pi../sup 0/ mesons in the investigated reaction at 5 GeV, on the one hand, and for ..pi../sup -/ mesons from pp interactions in the energy interval 13--300 GeV.
