The invention provides a novel method for preparing vitamin A and vitamin A ester with farnesene as a raw material. The method comprises the following steps: reacting farnesene with acetoacetate underthe action of a catalyst to obtain farnesyl keto ester; carrying out a cyclization reaction and a dehydrogenation reaction on farnesene acetone, and then reacting a reaction product with vinyl magnesium halide to generate vinyl alcohol; carrying out a rearrangement reaction on vinyl alcohol to obtain vitamin A; and subjecting the vitamin A to an esterification reaction to obtain the vitamin A ester. The method avoids the defects of the existing processes, and the process line of the method is economical and effective.
