China must continue efforts to control food and housing prices to ease soaring inflation and maintain economic development and social stability, Premier Wen Jiabao said.

Authorities must help boost output of farm products, control the non-food use of corn and increase land supply to make more residential housing available, Wen said in a statement posted yesterday on the central government’s website.
