Default Dusk-to-dawn security lighting for a farmyard ?

Hello -

In response to local burglaries, some relatives have been advised by the
police to install a dusk-to-dawn low-level floodlight in their small (15
metres across) farmyard., which already has motion-activated halogen lamps.

The police recommend a sodium lamp, but are the CFL-based floodlights also
suitable?
Sodium lamps with dusk-til-dawn sensors seem to be quite thin on the ground,
should I use a separate sensor?
Can anyone comment on whether these might be suitable?
