  High transverse momentum pi0-mesons have been measured with the H1 detector
at HERA in deep-inelastic ep scattering events at low Bjorken-x, down to x <~
4.10^{-5}. The measurement is performed in a region of small angles with
respect to the proton remnant in the laboratory frame of reference, namely the
forward region, and corresponds to central rapidity in the centre of mass
system of the virtual photon and proton. This region is expected to be
particularly sensitive to QCD effects in hadronic final states. Differential
cross-sections for inclusive pi0-meson production are presented as a function
of Bjorken-x and the four-momentum transfer Q^2, and as a function of
transverse momentum and pseudorapidity. A recent numerical BFKL calculation and
predictions from QCD models based on DGLAP parton evolution are compared with
the data.
