Abstract The production of Lambda baryons is studied using deep-inelastic events measured with the H1 detector at HERA. The measurements are made in the phase space defined by the negative four-momentum transferred squared of the photon, $145 < Q^2 < 20000~\mathrm{GeV}^2$, and the inelasticity $0.2 < y < 0.6$. Differential Lambda production cross sections are measured. Differential Lambda yields per event are determined. The Lambda - Anti-lambda asymmetry is measured and found to be consistent with zero. Predictions of leading order Monte Carlo programs are compared to data.
