A method for producing L-glutamic acid by fermentation, which comprises culturing a microorganism having L-glutamic acid-producing ability in a medium having pH of 5.0 or less, wherein a total content of an organic acid that inhibits growth of the microorganism at the pH is one at which the growth of the microorganism is not inhibited; and a method for producing L-glutamic acid by fermentation, which comprises culturing a microorganism having L-glutamic acid-producing ability at a first pH at which growth of the microorganism is not inhibited by an organic acid in a medium, and then culturing the microorganism at a second pH that is suitable for L-glutamic acid production by the microorganism and is lower than the first pH.
