Abstract: It is well-known that there exists a triangle-free planar graph of $n$ verticess such that the largest induced forest has size at most $frac5n8$. Salavatipour proved that there is a forest of size at least $frac5n9.41$ in any triangle-free planar graph of $n$ vertices. Dross, Montassier and Pinlou improved Salavatipour's bound to $frac5n9.17$. In this work, we further improve the bound to $frac5n9$. Our technique is inspired by the recent ideas from Lukot'ka, Maz{'a}k and Zhu.
