I have no access to the Amigo Games version, or the German version of the rules. [The Game Cabinet](http://gamecabinet.com/rules/Bohnanza3.html) site does have a translation:

> **Playing Bean Cards** - You must play the first card dealt to you on to one of your fields, **unless you hold no cards.**

You just skip the first step, since you are unable to fulfill the conditions.
