Hyperon production in

p

¯
Y
reactions is one of the main parts of the
P

ANDA physics program. By colliding antiprotons and protons with HESR at FAIR, antihyperon hyperon pairs can be produced via the annihilation of light antiquark quark pairs and the production of
s

pairs. Feasibility studies have been performed for a set of

reactions. Reconstruction rates for these reactions at
P

ANDA have been estimated. In particular, the feasibility of measuring spin observables in the
