The cross section for bottom quark production at fixed-target energies is calculated for a wide range of beam momenta. A detailed analysis is given for the HERA-B experiment. We consider both the order αs3 cross section and the resummation of soft gluon corrections in all orders of QCD perturbation theory. The inclusive transverse momentum and rapidity distributions, including resummation, for bottom quark production at HERA-B are also presented.
