The gauge fixing procedure for N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (SYM) is proposed in the context of the stochastic quantization method (SQM). The stochastic gauge fixing, which was formulated by Zwanziger for Yang-Mills theory, is extended to SYM_4 in the superfield formalism by introducing a chiral and an anti-chiral superfield as the gauge fixing functions. It is shown that SQM with the stochastic gauge fixing reproduces the probability distribution of SYM_4, defined by the Faddeev-Popov prescription, in the equilibrium limit with an appropriate choice of the stochastic gauge fixing functions. We also show that the BRST symmetry of the corresponding stochastic action and the power counting argument in the superfield formalism ensure the renormalizability of SYM_4 in this context.
