To provide culture method and culture apparatus that can sufficiently improve the production volume of microalgae under changing culture environment.SOLUTION: In the setting step of a culture method, the nutrient form of microalgae is set according to the culture environment. In the culturing step, microalgae are cultured in the nutrient form set in the setting step. When a photoautotrophic setting is set in the setting step, the microalgae are supplied with gas containing carbon dioxide and light in the culturing step. When a heterotrophic nutrition is set in the setting step, an organic substance is supplied to the microalgae in the culturing step.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】変化する培養環境下において、微細藻の生産量を十分に向上させることができる培養方法および培養装置を提供する。【解決手段】培養方法の設定工程では、培養環境に合わせて、微細藻の栄養形式を設定する。培養工程では、設定工程で設定した栄養形式で微細藻を培養する。設定工程で光独立栄養を設定した場合、培養工程では、微細藻に二酸化炭素を含むガスと、光と、を供給する。設定工程で従属栄養を設定した場合、培養工程では、微細藻に有機物を供給する。【選択図】図３
