Mounting Flourescents Direct to Ceiling joists

I have a new pole barn and have some flourescent light fixtures to install. Can I screw them directly to the joists/trusses or should I install another board first?

The barn is/will remain unfinished.

Half the lights will run parallel to the joists, half perpendicular.

The building is for storage only. No living space or animals. Occasional use for maintenance.

I'll go with whatever is best. Just don't want overkill.

Thank-you for any advice.
